Quick Installation

1. Install the FCK Editor.
2. Download fckplugins_v2.3.1.zip and uncompress it to your desktop or server.
3. Find the folder where you installed fckeditor. For our purposes, we will assume this is "~/fckeditor".
4. Open the FCKEditor plugins folder, "~/fckeditor/editor/plugins" and copy in all the directories from the uncompressed fckplugin_v2_1.zip, i.e. "equation", "tagprocessor" and "equation_html".
5. Open "~/fckeditor/fckconfig.js" and find the line:
   FCKConfig.PluginsPath = FCKConfig.BasePath + 'plugins/' ;
   and add:
   FCKConfig.Plugins.Add( 'equation', 'en' );
   FCKConfig.TidyEqns=false; // or true to encode backslashes
6. In the same file, "~/fckeditor/fckconfig.js", find the line:
   FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Default"] = [
   ['Source','DocProps','-','Save','NewPage','Preview','-','Templates'],
   and add the "Equation" option wherever appropriate, e.g.:
   FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Default"] = [
   ['Source','Equation','DocProps','-','Save','NewPage','Preview','-','Templates'],
7. Optionally you can also search for
   FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Basic"] = [
   ['Bold','Italic','-','OrderedList','UnorderedList','-','Link','Unlink','-','About']
   ] ;
   and again add the "Equation" option, e.g.,
   FCKConfig.ToolbarSets["Basic"] = [
   ['Equation','Bold','Italic','-','OrderedList','UnorderedList','-','Link','Unlink','-','About']
   ] ;
