How do I install mosml?

Question

I need to get Mosml (Moskow sml) on to my system for university. I never installed anything that wasn't in the software manager or using wine (read: my console skills are low).

the package is here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mosml thing is, I haven't got a clue what to do with it.

So far:

• Tried the mosml.static (a stand-alone toplevel (mosml)) didn't really know what to do with it.

• tried the source files, extracted them and looked in the install.txt, but I don't get the /bin folder and so it seems to be a dead-end..??

Please help if you have a clue. I really need it and its quite urgent.
