HOW TO BUILD AND INSTALL DISCOUNT
|
|
|
|
1) Unpacking the distribution
|
|
|
|
The DISCOUNT sources are distributed in tarballs. After extracting from
|
|
the tarball, you should end up with all the source and build files in the
|
|
directory
|
|
discount-(version)
|
|
|
|
2) Installing the distribution
|
|
|
|
DISCOUNT uses configure.sh to set itself up for compilation. To run
|
|
configure, just do ``./configure.sh'' and it will check your system for
|
|
build dependencies and build makefiles for you. If configure.sh finishes
|
|
without complaint, you can then do a ``make'' to compile everything and a
|
|
``make install'' to install the binaries.
|
|
|
|
Configure.sh has a few options that can be set:
|
|
|
|
--src=DIR where the source lives (.)
|
|
--prefix=DIR where to install the final product (/usr/local)
|
|
--execdir=DIR where to put executables (prefix/bin)
|
|
--sbindir=DIR where to put static executables (prefix/sbin)
|
|
--confdir=DIR where to put configuration information (/etc)
|
|
--libdir=DIR where to put libraries (prefix/lib)
|
|
--libexecdir=DIR where to put private executables
|
|
--mandir=DIR where to put manpages
|
|
--enable-dl-tag Use the DL tag extension
|
|
--enable-pandoc-header Use pandoc-style header blocks
|
|
--enable-superscript A^B expands to A<sup>B</sup>
|
|
--enable-amalloc Use a debugging memory allocator (to detect leaks)
|
|
--relaxed-emphasis Don't treat _ in the middle of a word as emphasis
|
|
--with-tabstops=N Set tabstops to N characters (default is 4)
|
|
|
|
3) Installing sample programs and manpages
|
|
|
|
The standard ``make install'' rule just installs the binaries. If you
|
|
want to install the sample programs, they are installed with
|
|
``make install.samples''; to install manpages, ``make install.man''.
|
|
A shortcut to install everything is ``make install.everything''
