-**  Please read point 2.6 Before starting with these instructions.
+**  Please read the very last point before starting this tutorial.
-**  Before installing SemanticVectors you WILL need Lucene (a library for java to search text).
+This is an installation tutorial for dolts like me, that means, I wrote it after fighting for hours with my lack of intelligence. I hope it help you to install SemanticVectors quickly. You might need several things before installing SV, in particular a java developer kit, a building tool (ant) and Lucene, a library to search text. Everything is documented in this tutorial.
-  -  Install Lucene:

-      *  JDK: Develpment environment for java

-      *  Ant: A build-tool for java, similar to make.

-sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
 sudo apt-get install ant
 sudo apt-get install ant-doc
-</code>

+  -  You can test your installation with the the following command on your terminal: <file bash>ant -version</file>You should get something like<file bash>Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on September 8 2010</file>
-<code> ant -version </code>
-<file> Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on September 8 2010 </file>
   -  [[http://ftp.fernuni-hagen.de/ftp-dir/pub/mirrors/www.apache.org//lucene/java/lucene-3.0.2.tar.gz|Dowload Lucene]]
+  -  Untar the gz file in your desired location.
+  -  Go to the target directory.
+  -  If every thing is allright (if ant is working properly), then run ant in the current directory; it would automatically detect build.xml. <file bash>ant </file>
+    -  You will need to set the appropiate CLASSPATH. CLASSPATH specify the location of Java libraries. To check up if the variable is declared in your system:<file bash> echo $CLASSPATH </file>
+    -  Althought there are (supposedly) several methods to set CLASSPATH the only one which worked for me was the following: You will have to edit  //bashrc// <file bash>gedit .bashrc </file>
+    -  At the end of the document add: <file bash>export {location of lucene}/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:{location of lucene}/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar"</file> in my case:<file bash> export CLASSPATH="/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar" </file>
+    -  Reboot your computer. Now Lucene should be working.
+    -  In order to check if everything is all right you should do the following.
+      -  [[http://code.google.com/p/semanticvectors/downloads/detail?name=kjbible-corpus.tar.gz&can=2&q=|Download an example corpus]]
+      -  Untar the corpus in a desired location. Normally the directory will we: bible_chapters. Go to that directory and run the following command: <file bash>java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles {complete bible_chapters path} </file>
+      - In my case:<file bash>java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles /home/eduardo/programas/SemanticVectors/bible_chapters </file>
+      - If everything runs ok, you should be done. An index directory will be created in bible_chapters. You should be able to perform some simple test using the demo library included in lucene.
+== Install SemanticVector==
+  *  This is the binary installation method. You could actually built SemanticVector by downloading the appropriate file and using again ant. I don't recommend it.
+  -  [[http://semanticvectors.googlecode.com/files/semanticvectors-1.8.jar|Dowload SemanticVector]] .jar file.
+  -  Move this file to the desire location
+  -  Again open bashrc and add to CLASSPATH the desire file. In my case it looks like: <file bash>export CLASSPATH="/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/SemanticVectors/semanticvectors-1.8.jar" </file>
+  -  Reboot your Computer.
+  -  By now every thing should be working. Go to the directory where you ran lucene. Run the following command: <file bash>java pitt.search.semanticvectors.BuildIndex {location in your computer}/bible_chapters/index/</file>
+  -  Now you are ready to use SemanticVectors. In this point I realized that there is a (probably) very serious bug. Since lucene is constantly actualized and SV depends on Lucene, there are several compatibility issues between both. In particular, a class form Lucene has been deprecated in the last version. I checked in the official community and there are not answers to this issue, although others have reported the same problem. Maybe a I get some feedback regarding this problem. Otherwise an older version of the software will be necessary.

-- Untar the gz file in your desired location.
-.4. Go to the directory
-.5. If every thing is allright (if ant is working properly), then run ant in the current directory; it would directly associate build.xml.
-.6. You will need to set the appropiate CLASSPATH. Classpath specify the location of Java libraries. To check up if the variable is declared in your system:
-					echo $CLASSPATH
-.7. Althought there are (supposedly) several methods to set CLASSPATH the only one which worked for me was the following: You will have to edit the file bashrc
-                            in the end of the document add:
-					export {location of lucene}/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:{location of lucene}/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar"
-			    in my case:
-					export CLASSPATH="/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar"
-			    Reboot your computer. Now lucene should be working
-.8. In order to check if everything is allrigh you should do the following. Download an example corpus from: "http://code.google.com/p/semanticvectors/downloads/detail?name=kjbible-corpus.tar.gz&can=2&q=". Untar the corpus in a desired location. Normally the directory will we: bib_chapters. Go to that directory and run the following command
-				 	java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles {comple location of lucene}
-                           In my case:
-				 	java org.apache.lucene.demo.IndexFiles /home/eduardo/lucene-3.0.2
-			   If everything runs without a problem you should be done.
-. Install SemanticVector:
-.1. Dowload SemanticVector from: http://semanticvectors.googlecode.com/files/semanticvectors-1.8.jar
-.2. Move this file to the desire location
-.3. Again open bashrc and to CLASSPATH the desire file. In my case:
-					export CLASSPATH="/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-demos-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/lucene/lucene-3.0.2/lucene-core-3.0.2.jar:/home/eduardo/programas/SemanticVectors/semanticvectors-1.8.jar"
-.4. Reboot your Computer.
-.5. By now every thing should be working. Go to the directory where you have runned lucene. Run the following command
-					java pitt.search.semanticvectors.BuildIndex /home/eduardo/programas/SemanticVectors/bible_chapters/index/
-.6. Now you are ready to use SemanticVectors. However in this point I reallized that there is a (probably) very serious bug. Since lucene is constantly actualized and SV depends on Lucene, there are several compatibility issues between both. In particular, a class form Lucene has been deprecated in the last version.
