24−* `elm-server` is both a compiler and server, allowing you to develop without designing and setting up a server yourself. Running `elm-server` starts a server in the current directory. It will compile and serve any `.elm` files in the current directory and its sub-directories. This is how I prefer to develop Elm programs.

26To use these executables you need to add a new directory to your PATH. For me, the executables were placed in `/home/evan/.cabal/bin` which I appended to the end of my PATH variable in my .bashrc file. Cabal should tell you where your executables are located upon successful installation, so you can make a similar addition (see this tutorial if you are new to changing your PATH in [Unix/Linux](http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/unix-linux-adding-path/)).

73−Error messages need work in general. Syntax, Parsing, and Type errors are reported, but the messages are not very specific. I hope to fix this as soon as possible.
75−If you are interested in making a large contribution, please contact me at `info (at) elm-lang (dot) org` so that we do not duplicate any work!
