How do I install YAWS/Erlang?

Question

Here I got small example how to run Yaws embedded, but how I need to install Yaws to get it worked?

I would suggest you to rephrase the title in "How to install Yaws?", given the question is not related to 'embedded'. — Roberto Aloi, Oct 21 '11 at 06:44
I will try all to be sure and then rename it. And i really have thought i need special installation for embedded case. — Yola, Oct 21 '11 at 07:14
@Yola - It's fine to leave the name as it is, [embedding yaws](http://yaws.hyber.org/embed.yaws) in another program is, as Roberto states, pretty standard stuff. However, the [tag:embedded] tag refers to embedded systems like toasters and garage door openers, that is, *computer systems running on dedicated hardware for a specific purpose* per the tag wiki, not to embedding one program within another. — Kevin Vermeer, Oct 21 '11 at 11:58

Ok, yaws worked as standalone app. Can get access from Firefox, now will try to launch as embedded app. – Yola Oct 21 '11 at 09:08
Ok, just copied yaws into my app dir end include yaws.hrl, then add path to lib. All worked out fine. Thanks. – Yola Oct 21 '11 at 09:47
