README for libgeda 


- Installation

	See the toplevel INSTALL for more instructions on how to build libgeda



- System Requirements

	A computer:
   	   - at least the processing power of a i486/66
	   - Enough RAM for X (usually 16 Mbytes but 32 Mbytes recommended)

	Running UNIX:
	   - Semi recent version of Unix or Linux

	The X window system 	
		- A resolution of at least 800x600
		- A color display
		- 3 button mouse (2 button works, but 3 button is better)

	A C compiler (that understands ANSI, like gcc) 

	GLIB version 2.4.x or later (and anything glib requires)
	GLIB version 1.2.x is no longer supported.
	Glib can be found at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk

	GTK+ version 2.4.x or later (and anything gtk requires)
	GTK+ version 1.2.x is no longer supported.
	Gtk can be found at: ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk

	GUILE - guile-1.6.x or later is required (and anything guile
	requires).  Guile 1.4.x is no longer supported.
	Guile can be found at: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/guile

	LibStroke 0.5.1 [OPTIONAL] - if you want stroke support.  The homepage
	for LibStroke is: http://www.etla.net/libstroke/

	libgdgeda 2.0.15 [OPTIONAL] - if you want the ability to write png 
	images.  New versions of libgeda/gschem write png using internal code,
	so you will still be able to create png images without using libgdgeda.
 	Since 20060922, gd 2.0.x is used instead of libgdgeda, so libgdgeda 
	is not needed anymore.

        libgdgeda is based on gd 2.0.15  The homepage for gd 2.0.x is
	http://www.boutell.com/gd  You can find libgdgeda on the gEDA
	website: http://www.geda.seul.org/dist

        If you use libgdgeda then you also need zlib.  zlib can be found at:
        http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/zlib  zlib can also be found on
        the gEDA website: http://www.geda.seul.org/dist 

        If you use libgdgeda then you also need libpng.  libpng can be found 
        at: http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngcode.html  libpng can also be              found on the gEDA website: http://www.geda.seul.org/dist
