- This is the README for gucharmap.
-
- gucharmap is a featureful unicode character map.
-
-
- COMPILING
-
- gucharmap uses GTK+ 2.6 or later, which you can get from
- http://gtk.org/.
-
- If GNOME is available, gucharmap uses it, but only to make the Help
- menu.
-
- To compile and install, do the usual
-
- ./configure
- make
- make install
-
- There are two extra ./configure options:
-
- --disable-gnome disables GNOME-only functionality, even if the GNOME
- libraries are found.
-
- --disable-unihan disables CJK ideograph information. The ideograph
- information includes definition and pronunciations in several
- languages, and is extracted from [3]. Omitting the ideograph
- information will reduce gucharmap's size by roughly 2 megabytes.
