rcairo
======

Ruby bindings for cairo // cairo extension for Ruby

http://cairographics.org/


Dependencies
------------

ruby                   >= 1.8
cairo                  >= 1.2.0

Compiling
---------

% ruby extconf.rb    # to check for dependencies and create Makefiles
% make               # to compile

# make install       # to install the cairo extension.
                     # The samples in the samples folder should be able
                     # to run before installation except text-on-path.rb
                     # and text2.rb. They uses Ruby/Pango with rcairo
                     # support. So you need to install rcairo and build
                     # Ruby/Pango with it before you run them.
