== Fetch, build & install

E.g., on Linux, assuming installation in $HOME/local/chicken-5.3.0:

$ wget http://code.call-cc.org/releases/5.3.0/chicken-5.3.0.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf chicken-5.3.0.tar.gz
$ cd chicken-5.3.0
$ gmake PREFIX=$HOME/local/chicken-5.3.0 -j$(nproc)
$ gmake PREFIX=$HOME/local/chicken-5.3.0 install

`nproc` might not be available on your system (in this case just drop
`-j` or use a number of parallel build threads you want as argument
for it).


== Additional optional steps

$ (cd $HOME/local ; rm -f chicken-5; ln -s chicken-5.3.0 chicken-5)
$ export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/local/chicken-5/bin
