Welcome to cIRCus 0.43!
-----------------------
Please read this carefully before installing cIRCus.
I've hacked this release together in very short time - I promised to
release something this week, but as I will be gone from the 30th april till
the 4th of May, I can only keep my promise by releasing it now :)
This is not a completely finished release. I had hoped to include more
options, functionality, and userfriendlyness.
Because I didn't have the time to completely finish this release, cIRCus
will still not be able to detect where it's files are located. I tried to
fix this by adding a script that installs cIRCus for you, and sets appropriate
variables in the system resourcefile.
After unpacking cIRCus (which you've probably done by now :), type:
cd circus-043
./install
And answer the questions.
After this, the installation process will complete, and cIRCus can be run!
Unfortunately, there is not much documentation about cIRCus yet. But
hopefully, you won't need that much anyway :). Mark is working on some
docs, and they can be previewed at
http://www.cs.vu.nl/~mpdboer/circus/circus_help_main.html
Feedback is, as always, greatly appreciated!
You can simply start circus by typing 'circus', which is a shell script
that starts circus (either the shared or static version, depending on
which you downloaded).
Warning! this is a dynamically linked binary! It requires the following
libraries to be installed:
[ivo@vladdrac circus-043]$ ldd circus-bin
libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.0
libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5.3.9
libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1.8.5
libg++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libg++.so.27.1.0
libstdc++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.27.1.0
libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5.0.5
If you get errors that some of these cannot be loaded, download the libraries,
install them, run ldconfig and try again. Also check
http://www.nijenrode.nl/~ivo/circus
Which is also the place for all other problems you may encounter, and some
very simpel documentation.
Note for those upgrading from previous versions:
It is advisable to copy the .circusrc from this version to your current
.circusrc, or at least have a look at the current .circusrc to see the
changes..
Also, have a look at the stuff in scripts/ - it's not much but it's a start.
I hope you enjoy using cIRCus!
Ivo (cIRCus development team)
PS: Remember, it's *cIRCus*, not cIRC!
