HowTo Build Minix Editline
|
|
|
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minix editline makes use of GNU configure tools, which includes autoconf, automake
|
|
|
|
|
and libtool. This enables high levels of portability and ease of use In most cases
|
|
|
|
|
all you need to do is unpack the tarball, enter the directory and type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are are, however, more options available. For instance, sometimes it is useful
|
|
|
|
|
to build editline as a static library, type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-shared
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default editline employs a default handler for the TAB key, pressing it once
|
|
|
|
|
completes to the nearest matching filename in the current working directory, or it
|
|
|
|
|
can display a listing of possible completions. For some uses this default is not
|
|
|
|
|
desirable at all, type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-default-complete
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
An even more common desire is to change the default install location. By default all
|
|
|
|
|
configure scripts setup /usr/local as the install "prefix", to change this type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --prefix=/home/troglobit/tmp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced users are encouraged to read up on --libdir, --mandir, etc. in the GNU
|
|
|
|
|
Configure and Build System.

For more available options, type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure --help
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build and install, simply type:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-08-08 17:20:36 +02:00
|
|
|
followed by
|
2010-08-08 17:17:12 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Good Luck!
