  +The most recent versions of the R type provider can be used on Mac and Linux using
  +Mono. However, there is a bit of setup that you need to go through first. This page
   describes the necessary steps for using R provider on Mac using Xamarin Studio, but
   it should be easily adaptable for other configuration. If no, please [edit this 
   file](https://github.com/BlueMountainCapital/FSharpRProvider/blob/master/docs/content/mac-and-linux.fsx)
  
positive.code: Now, type the following in the script file (with the correct R provider version):
  *)
  #nowarn "211"
  #I "packages/RProvider.1.1.4"
  #load "RProvider.fsx"
  
  open RProvider

  Note: Manual installation 64 bit version of Mono
  ------------------------------------------
  The Mono project currently offers a [preview version](http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-mac) 
  of an installer for 64 bit version of Mono. If you however need to install Mono manually, 
  the following section describes the necessary steps.
  
  This page is based on [this write-up on running R.NET on 
  Mac](http://rawgit.com/evelinag/Projects/master/RDotNetOnMac/output/RDotNetOnMac.html) by 
  [Evelina Gabasova](http://evelinag.com/). The page has some more details and hints that
  you may need if the simplified version below does not work for you.
  
  ### Installing 64 bit version of Mono
  
  First of all, you need 64 bit version of Mono. To do this, you'll need command line tools
  `autoconf`, `automake` and `libtool`. Probably the easiest way to do this is to install
  [Homebrew](http://brew.sh/) (but feel free to use your favorite tool) and then run:
  
      [lang=text]
      brew install automake
      brew install autoconf
      brew install libtool
  
  Now you can use `git` to get the latest version of Mono from GitHub and install it. The 
  following installs it into `/usr/local/mono64` (feel free to change this too):
  
      [lang=text]
      export MONO_PREFIX=/usr/local/mono64
      git clone https://github.com/mono/mono.git
      cd mono
      ./autogen.sh --prefix=$MONO_PREFIX --disable-nls  
      make
      make install
  
  You might get a timeout from `git` when running the `autogen`-command, if you are behind
  a firewall. To fix this just run the following, which will force `git` to clone using
  "https://" instead of "git://":
  
      [lang=text]
      git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://
  
  Now we can run Mono in 64-bit explicitly using `/usr/local/mono64/bin/mono`.
