The Lsd code is identical under Windows or Unix plaforms. It is compiled with GNU C++ and standard libraries so that Unix users should have no problems running it. The Windows distribution includes all required software, so that users do not need to install any other package: just install the system and run the example models. You can browse the directory structure of the installation, and download each individual file.

Complete Distribution
The complete distribution includes:

• Lsd source code. That is, the common code used by any Lsd model to manage interfaces and any technical aspect of a simulation model.
  
• Lsd Model Manager (LMM). An integrated environment for running and developing Lsd models, even for users not familiar with programming. LMM allows the selection of existing models, creation of new ones, signals errors from mistaken code, etc.
  
• Lsd and LMM manuals. Both LMM and Lsd interfaces have context dependent help pages. See here for a documentation page.
• Example models. There are currently more than a dozen example models, from simple Recplicator Dynamics to complex NK exploration. Users can run preset configurations, modify the initial values or editing the very code of the model, exploiting the intrinsic modularity of Lsd models.
• Compiler, C++ debugger, libraries, etc. (MS-Windows distribution only). A complete toolkit for programming in C++, required to run Lsd models, is included in the Windows version. LMM exploits these packages (or the equivalent in Unix environments) allowing users to compile models directly from the integrated environment.
