== Requirements ==
==== Operating system ====
 * '''Windows''': Any version ([[http://www.mathworks.com/support/sysreq/release2013b/index.html?sec=windows|details]])
 * '''Linux''': Ubuntu 12.04+, !RedHat 6.x, Debian 6.x, SUSE 11.3+  ([[http://www.mathworks.com/support/sysreq/release2013b/index.html?sec=linux|details]])
 * '''MacOS''': MacOSX 10.7.4+ (Lion), 10.8 (Mountain Lion), 10.9 (Mavericks) ([[http://www.mathworks.com/support/sysreq/release2013b/index.html?sec=mac|details]])

==== Matlab Compiler Runtime ====
 * '''MCR version''': R2013b (8.2)
 * Download for free from the [[http://www.mathworks.com/products/compiler/mcr/|Mathworks website]]

== Installation ==
 1. Download the latest bst_bin_R2013b_....zip archive

 1. Unzip it somewhere on your computer, for example:<<BR>>
  * __Windows__: Program Files\brainstorm3
  * __Linux__: /usr/local/brainstorm3 (or ~/brainstorm3 if you are not admin)
  * __MacOS__: Applications/brainstorm3

 1. Create a new folder "'''brainstorm_db'''" for the Brainstorm database, for example:
  * __Windows__: My documents\brainstorm_db
  * __Linux__: /home/username/brainstorm_db
  * __MacOS__: Documents/brainstorm_db

== Start Brainstorm ==
 1. Download the '''MCR R2013b (8.2)''' for your operating system: [[http://www.mathworks.com/products/compiler/mcr/|Mathworks website]]

 1. Install the MCR:
  * __Windows__: Double-click on the .exe and follow the instructions
  * __Linux__: From a terminal, unzip .zip, then run ./install

  * From a terminal, make sure that the file "''brainstorm3.command''" is executable:<<BR>>''chmod a+x brainstorm3.command''
  * If nothing happens, run:<<BR>>''./brainstorm3.command MCR_DIR''<<BR>>MCR_DIR is the MCR 8.2 folder (ex: /Applications/MATLAB/MCR/v80)
  * If you can't get this run, you can with another binary release:<<BR>>Matlab 2012b: [[InstallationR2012b|See instructions]]<<BR>>Matlab 2014a: [[InstallationR2014a|See instructions]]
