+This is a simple guide to get Smarty setup and running quickly. The online
+documentation includes a very thorough explanation of a Smarty installation.
+This guide is meant to be a quick and painless way of getting Smarty working,
+and nothing more. The guide assumes you are familiar with the UNIX system
+environment. Windows users will need to make adjustments where necessary.
+
+INSTALL SMARTY LIBRARY FILES
+
+Copy the Smarty library files to your system. In our example, we place them in
+/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/
+
+$> cd YOUR_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY
+$> gtar -ztvf Smarty-2.6.7.tar.gz
+$> mkdir /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty
+$> cp -r Smarty-2.6.7/libs/* /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty
+
+You should now have the following file structure:
+
+/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/
+ Config_File.class.php
+ debug.tpl
+ internals/
+ plugins/
+ Smarty.class.php
+ Smarty_Compiler.class.php
+
+
+SETUP SMARTY DIRECTORIES
+
+You will need four directories setup for Smarty to work. These files are for
+templates, compiled templates, cached templates and config files. You may or
+may not use caching or config files, but it is a good idea to set them up
+anyways. It is also recommended to place them outside of the web server
+document root. The web server PHP user will need write access to the cache and
+compile directories as well.
+
+In our example, the document root is /web/www.domain.com/docs and the
+web server username is "nobody". We will keep our Smarty files under
+/web/www.domain.com/smarty
+
+$> cd /web/www.domain.com
+$> mkdir smarty
+$> mkdir smarty/templates
+$> mkdir smarty/templates_c
+$> mkdir smarty/cache
+$> mkdir smarty/configs
+$> chown nobody:nobody smarty/templates_c
+$> chown nobody:nobody smarty/cache
+$> chmod 775 smarty/templates_c
+$> chmod 775 smarty/cache
+
+
+SETUP SMARTY PHP SCRIPTS
+
+Now we setup our application in the document root:
+
+$> cd /web/www.domain.com/docs
+$> mkdir myapp
+$> cd myapp
+$> vi index.php
+
+Edit the index.php file to look like the following:
+
+<?php
+
+// put full path to Smarty.class.php
+require('/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/Smarty.class.php');
+$smarty = new Smarty();
+
+$smarty->template_dir = '/web/www.domain.com/smarty/templates';
+$smarty->compile_dir = '/web/www.domain.com/smarty/templates_c';
+$smarty->cache_dir = '/web/www.domain.com/smarty/cache';
+$smarty->config_dir = '/web/www.domain.com/smarty/configs';
+
+$smarty->assign('name', 'Ned');
+$smarty->display('index.tpl');
+
+?>
+
+
+SETUP SMARTY TEMPLATE
+
+$> vi /web/www.domain.com/smarty/templates/index.tpl
+
+Edit the index.tpl file with the following:
+
+<html>
+<head>
+<title>Smarty</title>
+</head>
+<body>
+Hello, {$name}!
+</body>
+</html>
+
+
+
+Now go to your new application through the web browser,
+http://www.domain.com/myapp/index.php in our example. You should see the text
+"Hello Ned!" in your browser.
+
+Once you get this far, you can continue on to the Smarty Crash Course to learn
+a few more simple things, or on to the documentation to learn it all.
