We will cover only a few approaches here<ref>If you want to contribute a description on how to install Bluefish on your system, just drop us a note. :-)</ref>, since the installation is very system-specific ;-). Let us have a look at some different systems:
Actually, Bluefish {{Version}} has been integrated into many repositories of various Linux distributions, as it has proven to be a reliable programming editor. Besides, there are installation packages available for Windows and MacOS as well. If you have problems, you find info on the [https://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html project page] as well as in this [[Installing Bluefish|wiki]].


* For Debian users this is very simple. To download, install, and configure bluefish in “One Swift Move”, run: <br/>  '''$''' su - && apt-get update && apt-get install bluefish<br/> You can check if the version available through apt is the latest -- see the Bluefish homepage, and compare the version there with what <tt>'''apt-cache show bluefish'''</tt> tells you. If there is a newer version on the Bluefish site, download it and install the package like this: <tt>'''dpkg -i bluefish-ver.deb'''</tt>
If all that doesn't help, then please [[Contact Us|contact us]]!
* For rpm based distributions, first check if your distribution has a recent Bluefish version. If it does not, download the rpm for your distribution from any of the Bluefish mirrors. Installing a downloaded rpm is as simple as pointing and clicking in your favorite GUI package manager, or issuing the following command from the command line (as root): <br/>  '''<nowiki>#</nowiki>''' rpm -Uvh bluefish-ver.rpm
* If you're using FreeBSD, NetBSD or OpenBSD, we probably do not need to tell ''you'' how to use your favorite package system ;-)
* For Mac users, just install it via Fink. Depending of you operating system's version you have the choice between:
** bluefish v. 0.7 for Mac OS X 10.1
** bluefish v. 0.12 for Mac OS X 10.2
** bluefish v. 1.0 for Mac OS X 10.3 and above
