####################################################

1) Download R from http://cran.rstudio.com/ and install.

2) Install the devtools package from CRAN, either by typing:

	install.packages('devtools') 

into the console, or via the Tools > Install Packages menu if using RStudio .

3) Load the devtools package via the command:
	
	library(devtools)

Windows users may be prompted to install Rtools. You do not need this to install SAVI.

4) Install the SAVI package via:

	install_github('91̽»¨-Accelerated-VoI/SAVI-package')


The SAVI report download feature requires Pandoc. Pandoc can be downloaded and installed from http://pandoc.org/.
Pandoc is not essential for the rest of SAVI to work.
