Compilation and Installation
Quick Start:
If you're in a hurry to see Pdmenu, just run "make test" now --
pdmenu will be compiled, and will run on a sample pdmenurc file.
Then, read the rest of this file. :-)
Libraries:
To compile Pdmenu, you need the S-Lang library. This can be
found at ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/slang/
Optionally, if you wish to compile pdmenu with mouse support, you
need to install the GPM library. Find it on a linux ftp site near
you.
Configuration:
Pdmenu uses an autoconf configure script. Typically, if you want
the pdmenu binary installed in /usr/bin, and the pdmenurc file
installed in /etc, you should type:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
To get a list of all the possible arguments the configure script can
use, type:
./configure --help
Note that if you have slang installed in a nonstandard location, you
might need to set two variables before you are run ./configure in
the next step:
SLANG_LIB_LOC Set this to the directory where the slang
libraries are located.
SLANG_H_LOC Set this to the filename where slang.h is
located.
After running configure, you might want to take a look at
makeinfo, which is part of Pdmenu's makefile - there are a few
options you can turn on there. You can also look at
src/config.h and modify some things there. This is optional.
Compilation:
Pdmenu has been compiled on many flavors of Unix. You shouldn't
have any problems with those OS's, but for others, you're on your
own. If you get it to work on something else, please let me know.
To build Pdmenu, type:
make
Testing:
To try out the program before installing it, type:
make test
Installation:
To install Pdmenu, become root and type:
make install
Report any problems to me, <joey@kitenet.net>.
Please see the README and man pages for more information about Pdmenu.
