Windows: After the download is complete you can start installation file. If updating an existing installation using Scientific Word or Scientific WorkPlace, you will generally not need to update the TeX installation or the Ghostscript installation.

Macintosh: Version 6.1 is not compatible for use with macOS® 11.0 Big Sur or 10.15 Catalina.
The TeX Live installer is not part of the Macintosh download file. For new installations, install TeX Live using TeX User Group MacTeX Distribution. This step is not necessary for an existing SWP or SW installation.

Then, using the downloaded file from above:

Decompress the file using the MacOS tool 'Archive Utility'
The decompressed `file' will be SWP, SW, or SNB. It is actually a directory.
Drag it to /Applications/MacKichan to add new or replace the old version with the new one.

When using OS X, there has been a problem with entering macros using ctrl+space. It should be cmd+space, but that keyboard shortcut defaults to Spotlight, the OS X system search. Many utilities like Alfred and Launchbar will use ctrl+space. Up until now ctrl+space has been used, but that is frequently already taken so the macro feature is unavailable. Now, the following keyboard shortcuts will work if they are available:

ctrl+space

ctrl+alt+space

ctrl+alt+cmd+space

shift+ctrl+alt+cmd+space

All the modifier keys are near each other, so these combinations are actually accessible. When using OS X, try ctrl+space and if that doesn't work, go down this list until you find something that does. The escape key exits the macro tool.
