text-generation-webui/INSTRUCTIONS.TXT

Thank you for downloading oobabooga/text-generation-webui.

# Installation

Run the "start" script. If all goes right, it should take care of
everything for you.

To launch the web UI in the future after it is already installed, run
this same "start" script.

# Updating

Run the "update" script. This will only install the updates, so it should
be much faster than the initial installation.

May need to delete the 'text-generation-webui\repositories\GPTQ-for-LLaMa'
folder if GPTQ-for-LLaMa needs to be updated.

# Adding flags like --chat, --notebook, etc

Edit the "webui.py" script using a text editor and add the desired flags
to the CMD_FLAGS variable at the top. It should look like this:

CMD_FLAGS = '--chat --model-menu'

For instance, to add the --notebook flag, change it to

CMD_FLAGS = '--notebook --model-menu'

# Running an interactive shell

To run an interactive shell in the miniconda environment, run the "cmd"
script. This is useful for installing additional requirements manually.
