Right, NEWT/0 is a separate checkout from svn://so-kukan.com/gnue/NEWT0/trunk.

It's a bit rudimentary, and only works on Linux or Mac OS X (possibly also using MSYS \
for WIndows).

- NEWT/0 is compiled using the usual "configure; make; make install" sequence
- cDCL from the n40hz SVN repo is built the same way
- tntk can be build using either CMake or also via the steps above

If you just want to play around with it and if you're using an Intel Mac, the \
compiled binary is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/n40hz/files/tntk/

That's what I'm doing right now, just using TextMake :) AppleScript support in \
Einstein is great, you can use it to install a package, and also to execute \
NewtonScript (which is needed to remove a package), e.g. like this:

tell application "Einstein"
	do newton script "SafeRemovePackage(GetPkgRef(\"PackageNameGoesHere\", \
GetStores()[0]))"  install package "PackageNameGoesHere.pkg"
end tell

What's missing is simulating Inspector output from Einstein, but ViewFrame is \
actually not too bad, and you can debug apps directly in Einstein.
