These are the unified TADS 2/3 sources for Unix and Unix derivatives.
Eventually, compiling and installing them will be as easy as 1-2-3
(read: "configure, make, make install"), but we're not to that point yet.
For now, this is the procedure to follow:

    - Go into tads2/
    - Follow the instructions in tads2/makefile to configure it for your system
    - Type "make"
    - Type "make install" to install the binaries under /usr/local/bin
      (or whatever directory you specify as BINDIR). If you're only interested
      in the TADS 3 programs, you can skip this step. If you're only interested
      in TADS 2, stop here :-)
    - Go to ../tads3/
    - Follow the instructions in tads3/makefile to configure it for your
      system. If you want to build debuggable binaries (necessary for
      "make test"), uncomment CFLAGS_DEBUG.
    - Type "make"
    - If you'd like to test TADS3, type "make test".
    - Type "make install" to install the binaries and libraries in system
      locations
    - If you like, try out the TADS 3 sample game by going into tads3/samples
      and typing "t3make -f sample" followed by "t3run sample".

The primary point to remember is that the TADS 2 object files must be
present in tads2/ before you can compile in tads3/.

GNU make is recommended.
