To install the helper script, run one of the images with no arguments, and redirect the output to a file:
```bash
docker run --rm CROSS_COMPILER_IMAGE_NAME > ./dockcross
chmod +x ./dockcross
mv ./dockcross ~/bin/

For the impatient, here\'s how to compile a hello world for armv7:
```bash
cd ~/src/dockcross
docker run --rm dockcross/linux-armv7 > ./dockcross-linux-armv7
chmod +x ./dockcross-linux-armv7
./dockcross-linux-armv7 bash -c '$CC test/C/hello.c -o hello_arm'
```
Note how invoking any toolchain command (make, gcc, etc.) is just a matter of prepending the **dockcross** script on the commandline:
```bash
./dockcross-linux-armv7 [command] [args...]
```
The dockcross script will execute the given command-line inside the container, along with all arguments passed after the command. Commands that evaluate environmental variables in the image, like **$CC** or **$CXX** above, should be executed in [bash -c]. The present working directory is mounted within the image, which can be used to make source code available in the Docker container.
