Here are the available hledger binaries and some platform-specific hints. If the binary for your platform is not current or does not work, please build the latest hledger with cabal instead. Also please send success/failure reports and advice for making installation smoother.
| GNU/Linux | Mac | Windows |
|---|---|---|
Pick a likely-looking linux binary, pick a mouse button, and download.
Go to the download folder in a terminal window.
If the file did not get decompressed, do that now: gunzip hledger-*.
Rename the binary to hledger.
Make it executable: chmod +x hledger.
Try running it: ./hledger --help.

Click the latest mac binary.
The file should be downloaded and decompressed into your Safari download folder.
Open a terminal window and go to that folder.
Rename the binary to hledger.
Make it executable: chmod +x hledger.
Try running it: ./hledger --help.

Click the latest windows binary.
The file should download and be decompressed.
Save the binary as hledger.exe to eg your desktop.

then try hledger web.
A security dialog will pop up, where you can choose whether other machines
