19 19 <p>Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!</p>
20 20
21 21 <p>
22 22 Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
23 23 the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a
24 24 href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> shell).
25 25 </p>
26 26
27 27 <p class="indented">
28 28 <i>Note: the standard <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a>
29 29 msys startup script uses rxvt which has problems setting up
30 30 standard input and output. Running bash directly works
31 31 correctly.</i>
32 32 </p>

36 36 href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial">Mercurial web site</a>.
37 37 You can also download a free book, <a

43 43 By default, Mercurial installs to <tt>C:\Program
44 44 Files\Mercurial</tt>. The Mercurial command is called
45 45 <tt>hg.exe</tt>.
46 46 </p>

48 48 <h1>Testing Mercurial after you've installed it</h1>
49 49
50 50 <p>
51 51 The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is
52 52 to just type the following at the command prompt:
53 53 </p>
54 54
55 55 <pre>
56 56 hg
57 57 </pre>
58 58
59 59 <p>
60 60 This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
61 61 other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.
62 62 </p>
63 63
64 64 <h1>Configuration notes</h1>
65 65 <h4>Default editor</h4>
66 66 <p>
67 67 The default editor for commit messages is 'notepad'. You can set
68 68 the <tt>EDITOR</tt> (or <tt>HGEDITOR</tt>) environment variable
69 69 to specify your preference or set it in <tt>mercurial.ini</tt>:
70 70 </p>
71 71 <pre>
72 72 [ui]
73 73 editor = whatever
74 74 </pre>
75 75
76 76 <h4>Configuring a Merge program</h4>
77 77 <p>
78 78 It should be emphasized that Mercurial by itself doesn't attempt
79 79 to do a Merge at the file level, neither does it make any
80 80 attempt to Resolve the conflicts.
81 81 </p>
82 82
83 83 <p>
84 84 By default, Mercurial will use the merge program defined by the
85 85 <tt>HGMERGE</tt> environment variable, or uses the one defined
86 86 in the <tt>mercurial.ini</tt> file. (see <a
87 87 href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/MergeProgram">MergeProgram</a>
88 88 on the Mercurial Wiki for more information)
