[TOC]
The Polyscript interpreter is installed on the system in two parts: the interpreter binary executable and the configuration files. The location of these parts is contingent on the installation platform. See the table below for reference.

Platform Executable Location Configuration Directory
Windows C:\Program Files\Polyscript\polyscript.exe C:\ProgramData\Polyscript
Linux /usr/local/bin/polyscript /etc/polyscript

Configuration Directory

Inside the configuration directory, you will find options.ini and the directory, /lang. The files contained here control the entire interpretation process.

options.ini

This file contains options for the translation language, e.g. escape character, directory separator.

/lang

This directory contains several Polyscript language definition files. These files have the file extension psl. The filename of each definition file is the name of a specific language to translate to (or from).

The files in this directory are not required; however, the interpreter will default to polyscript.psl as the input language if no other language is specified.

The format of the language definition files is described on another page.
