-Before getting into all the details of the `alv` language, let's quickly run an
-example program to make sure that everything is working correctly:
-
- ([1]import* time)
- ([2]print ([3]every 0.5 "hello world!"))
-
-Open a text file save this piece of code as `hello.alv`. You can also find this
-example program in the repository and the windows binary package.
-
-As mentioned earlier, there are two different ways to run `alv` programs: using
-the copilot GUI, or in the terminal.
-
-## starting the copilot GUI
-On Linux and Mac OS X, you can launch the GUI by executing the `alv-fltk`
-command. On Windows, you can double-click `alv-fltk.bat`. This window should
-open:
-
-![a screeshot of the copilot GUI](copilot-gui.png)
-
-Now open `hello.alv` using `File > Open Script` or the shortcut `^O`
-(control-O). The copilot should start printing `hello world` over and over
-again in the lower field.
-
-You can pause and resume execution using the `Run` button or the `^P` shortcut.
-To stop the program simply close the window.
-
-## starting the copilot in the terminal
-To run a file in the terminal, invoke the command `alv <path/to/hello.alv>`. If
-your system cannot find the `alv` command, check your installation and `PATH`.
-On Windows, it is also possible to drag your `alv` file onto `alv.bat`.
-
-You should now see the text `hello world` being printed over and over again,
-twice a second. You can stop the copilot by pressing `^C` (control-C).
