IBM RSAIX such as a RS/6000
[xevil1.5.rsaix]
HP series 700 machines
[xevil1.5.hp700]
REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPILING
Xlib and a C++ compiler. XEvil has been compiled successfully with
versions of g++ and of CC (cfront).
COMPILING
In theory, you could just type 'make' and everything would work.
In practice you will modify the Makefile to your needs. (Sorry no Imakefile
yet.) I have tried to keep the Makefile as short and simple as possible.
By default the Makefile will look for the hostype or HOSTTYPE variables
and will call itself with the hosttype as an argument. E.g. If HOSTTYPE is
decmips then typing `make` is the same as typing `make decmips`.
You should look at the "Specific Architectures" section of the
Makefile. Modify one of these lines to add appropriate include and libs
directories as well as to define the compiler and compiler options.
Meanings of symbols used by the specific architectures:
------------------------------------------------------
CC C++ compiler to use. Probably g++ or CC.
LIBS Libraries to use. Usually "-lX11 -lm". For some odd reason
I needed to add "-ldnet_stub" for the Alpha I was using and
"-lsocket -lnsl" for the Sun 4 machines on Project Athena.
INCL_DIRS Where to look for the include files.
LIBS_DIRS Where to look for the libraries.
LINK_FLAGS Command line options for the link phase of compiling.
CFLAGS Command line options for compiling. You can use any flags your
compiler understands as well as the following:
Additional options for CFLAGS.
------------------------------
-DUSE_RANDOM Use the random() function instead of rand() to
generate random numbers. random() is a better
pseudo-number generator than rand(). You will
probably want to use this.
-DRANDOM_NEEDS_PROTOTYPES If you are using random() and for some reason
the prototypes for random() and srandom() do
not appear in <math.h>, use this flag. This
happens on Project Athena.
-DUSE_SELECT_H If you need <sys/select.h> for the prototypes
for select(), use this option.
-DSELECT_NEEDS_PROTOTYPES If the prototypes for select() still do not
show up, use this option.
-DXEVIL_KEYSET=<keyset-name> You can specify the default set of keyboard
controls for XEvil at compile-time. Controls
can also be specified with the -keys command
line option, with X resources, or with the
"Learn Controls" button when the program is
running. See the man pages, xevil.6, for more
details.
<keyset-name> can be one of {UIsun3, UIdecmips,
UIiris, UIncd, UItektronix, UIsun4, UIrsaix,
UIsun4_sparc,UImac}.
-DPROTECTED_IS_PUBLIC Some compilers have funny and non-standard
ideas of what "protected" means in an inherited
class. If you get an error like "method
<some method> is protected in this
context", try using this flag. It
makes all protected class members into
public members.
-DCLOCKS_PER_SEC=<clocks-per-sec>
In some cases, the symbol
CLOCKS_PER_SEC is not defined anywhere and you
must manually define it. This is the
conversion from the unit of time given by the
clock() function to seconds. If you don't
know what the value is for your system, use
-DCLOCKS_PER_SEC=1000000L This is the most
common value.
-DMATH_H_IS_CC Use this if you get strange errors from the
include file math.h. Usually math.h is
written in C, so the XEvil source includes it
as a C include file. Sometimes, however,
math.h is in C++, so it should be included
in the normal way.
-DNO_PRAGMAS Some compilers such as g++ take advantage of
"#pragma interface" and
"#pragma implementation" compiler directives
and others do not. In theory, every C compiler
should ignore pragmas it doesn't use. However,
some lame-ass compilers, such as SGI's 64 bit
C++ compiler, whine and give warning messages.
-DNO_PRAGMAS simply avoids these warning
messages.
INSTALLATION
1) Place the executable, xevil, in /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin, or wherever
you like to put your binaries.
2) Put the man pages, xevil.6, in /usr/man/man6 or wherever you like your
man pages.
3) If desired, add lines to your .Xdefaults or .Xresources file to
customize the keyboard controls of XEvil. See the man pages, xevil.6, or
look at the samples in app-defaults.
