<p>Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!</p>
<p>Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a
href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> shell).</p>

<p><div class="indented"><i>Note: the standard <a

rxvt which has problems setting up standard input and output.
Running bash directly works correctly.</i></div>

<p>By default, Mercurial installs to <tt>C:\Mercurial</tt>. The
Mercurial command is called <tt>hg.exe</tt>. To run this
command, the install directory must be in your search path.</p>
<h2>Setting your search path temporarily</h2>
<p>To set your search path temporarily, type the following into a
command prompt window:</p>
<pre>
set PATH=C:\Mercurial;%PATH%
</pre>
<h2>Setting your search path permanently</h2>
<p>To set your search path permanently, perform the following
steps. These instructions are for Windows NT, 2000 and XP.</p>
<ol>
<li>Open the Control Panel. Under Windows XP, select the
"Classic View".</li>
<li>Double-click on the "System" control panel.</li>
<li>Click on the "Advanced" tab.</li>
<li>Click on "Environment Variables". You'll find this near the
bottom of the window.</li>
<li>Under "System variables", you will see "Path". Double-click
it.</li>
<li>Edit "Variable value". Each path element is separated by a
semicolon (";") character. Append a semicolon to the end of the
list, followed by the path where you installed Mercurial
(e.g. <tt>C:\Mercurial</tt>).</li>
<li>Click on the various "OK" buttons until you've completely
exited from the System control panel.</li>
<li>Log out and log back in, or restart your system.</li>
<li>The next time you run the Windows command prompt, you will be
able to run the <tt>hg</tt> command without any special
help.</li>
</ol>
<h1>Testing Mercurial after you've installed it</h1>
<p>The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is to
just type the following at the command prompt:</p>
<pre>
hg
</pre>
<p>This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.</p>
