Packages
As a convenience, some volunteers have provided packages or ports of parrot for some platforms. Because we do not directly package Parrot for all OSs, some packages may not be current. If you would like the latest Parrot, we recommend building from git or a release tarball.

- Freebsd
- Windows (Win32) & documentation as Compiled HTML Help
