title: ocaml batteries installation
body: <p>There seems to be conflicting information about batteries installation. I have tried several suggestions, but none have worked for me. </p>
  
  <p>I first tried</p>
  
  <pre><code>ocamlfind batteries/ocaml
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but that gave this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>ocamlfind: Cannot find command: /username/godi/lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/batteries/ocaml
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I then tried copying the ocamlinit file from the batteries directory to .ocamlinit in my home directory. This gave this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Cannot find file topfind.
  File ".ocamlinit", line 38, characters 0-20:
  Error: Unbound module Toploop
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am using ocaml 4.00.1. </p>
  
  <p>Note: I apologize if this question is redundant with this one <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13506800/ocaml-batteries-compiling-unbound-module-toploop">ocaml batteries compiling : Unbound module Toploop</a> but the answer given was not explicit enough for me to actually try. </p>
