Installing
----------
If you are only concerned in getting the suite of executables you can most easily do so by using the [Alire][alire] package manager to handle the building and installing for you. The steps are:
```bash
alr install libadalang_tools
```
The build step will require a substantial amount of CPU and RAM, but once successful you should find the executables in `$HOME/.alire/bin`. If this is not in the `$PATH` set up by your shell's resource files, you should do so now, typically doing something like this (example is using Bash):
```bash
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.alire/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
```

Note that the crates on Alire are not always up to date with the [latest released version][releases].
