Perl 6 is best used from the command line or inside an editor such as Atom,
Emacs or Vim etc. It is not a full Mac GUI type app.
You may need to relax security permissions under "System Prefs>Security &
Privacy>General" to allow the use of unsigned third party apps for some uses.
1. Drag the 'Rakudo' folder onto the '/Applications' folder. Note this
is the root Applications directory and other locations won't work.
2. Drag the 'Docs' folder somewhere.
3. In a Terminal window add Rakudo Star to your path:
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/Rakudo/bin:/Applications/Rakudo/share/perl6/site/bin
Test with:
perl6 -e 'say "Hello, world!";'
4. Add the 'export' line above to .bash_profile or similar to persist.
5. Useful commands are 'p6doc' and 'zef'.
6. See also the documents in the 'Docs' folder and http://perl6.org
