# 3.2 What you need to install XGAP

Being a graphical user interface to GAP, XGAP of course needs graphics. At the moment this means that you need the X window system in the Version 11 Release 5 or newer. So you cannot use XGAP on a Macintosh or a Microsoft Windows computer. On the other hand the type of Unix you use should not matter. Please contact Max Neunhöffer (email: `max.neunhoeffer@math.rwth-aachen.de`) or post to the gap-trouble mailing list, if you encounter problems with certain system configurations.

Because XGAP contains a C-part you need a C compiler.
