to compile ircii
o there are 2 main ways of configuring ircii for your system. you
can either run the `easyinst' script, or, if you know how to use
gnu configure scripts, you can use that directly, and then edit
include/config.h yourself.
o using easyinst:
- in the same directory that this file is in, type `./easyinst'.
if you are using an old version of system v, you might need
`sh easyinst'.
- this script asks you a few questions and then calls configure
for you.
o using configure directly:
- in the same directory that this file is in, type `./configure'.
if you are using an old version of system v, you might need
`sh configure'.
- this script tries to guess various things about your system
that are important to it compiling. it creates various files
in this process. configure takes a couple of minutes to run.
WARNING: gnu sed vesrion 2.05 (and maybe 2.04 -- i don't know)
will not function properly with this configure script. gnu
sed version 2.03 does. please do not send me a bug report if
you are using gnu sed version 2.05 (such as linux systems)
- when this has finished, you might want to check the Makefile
for the places ircii will be installed. the defaults are
/usr/local/lib, /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/man. you can
either do `make prefix=/local' or set it with configure, by
calling configure with the `--prefix=/local' switch.
o compiling ircii - type `make' in the main ircii directory. this
will compile the `irc', `ircflush', `ircserv', and `wserv'
programs that reside in the source sub directory.
o once the programs are compiled, you can install them with
`make install'. this will install all the binaries, scripts,
translation tables, and the ircii man page.
o you can now delete the object files and binaries from the source
directory with `make clean'. `make distclean' will also delete
any file that `configure' created. this is useful for then
using the same sources to compile on a different architecture.
