UNIX systems
============

1.1 Installing on some Linux distributions

	1.1.1 Debian GNU/Linux
		Griffith is available from official repository,
		all you have to do is execute:
			# aptitude install griffith
	1.1.2 Arch Linux
		Download PKGBUILD file from:
			http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?K=griffith
		and follow this guide:
			http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/New_AUR_user_guidelines

1.1 Installing from source

	Unpack the Griffith tarball using these commands:

	$ tar -zxf griffith-<version>.tar.gz

	Switch to the newly created directory and type 'make install' as root
	(or 'sudo make install') and the Makefile will copy the files to the
	correct location in your system. You do not need to configure or
	compile Griffith as it is written in interpreted Python code.

1.2 Installing from downloaded package

	If you have downloaded Griffith package, just do as root:

	* deb packages (Debian, Ubuntu, ...)

		# dpkg -i griffith_<version>_all.deb
	
	* rpm packages (Redhat, Fedora, Mandrake, ...)

		# rpm -Uvh griffith_<version>.rpm

1.3 Installing on Debian/GNU Linux

	Griffith is available in Debian and Ubuntu:
	http://packages.debian.org/griffith
	http://packages.ubunty.com/griffith

	To install it, run as root these commands:

		# aptitude install griffith
	or
		# apt-get install griffith

1.4 Making Debian package

	If you want to make your own Debian package, follow these steps:
	* change your working directory to griffith source
	* edit debian/changelog file, f.e. like this:
		$ dch -v <version> -D UNRELEASED -i NOT RELEASED YET
	* type `debuild` or `dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot` to build package
	* install new package (`dpkg -i ../griffith_<version>_all.deb`)

Microsoft Windows systems
=========================

Just run the griffith installer available for your system.
A separated GTK+ Runtime Environment for Win32 is NOT necessary.
For now, Griffith is only known to work under Microsoft Windows XP
Professional Edition but should work on other windows flavours too.
