-appli_install.sh needs to be edited, to define a list of modules with their
-install paths.
-Then, the script appli_install.sh creates a virtual installation of SALOME
-in the application directory (bin, lib, doc, share...), with,
-for each file (executable, script, data,library, resources...),
-symbolic links to the actual file.

+(bin, lib, doc, share...), with, for each file (executable, script, data,

+
+Providing an existing an existing script for SALOME prerequisites (the same one
+used for modules compilation, or given with the modules installation), the
+installation works without further modification for a single computer (unless
+some modules needs a special environment not defined in the above script).
+For a distributed application (several computers), one must copy and adapt
+CatalogResources.xml from ${KERNEL_ROOT_DIR}/bin/salome/appliskel (see below).
