Installing scx These are generic installation instructions for scsh packages.
Prerequisites
=============
The scsh installation library is required to install this package.
This library *must* be present on your system before the current
package can be installed. It can be obtained from the following Web
page:
http://lamp.epfl.ch/~schinz/scsh_packages/
The installation library comes with its own documentation which
explains in detail how to install and use scsh packages. It is
recommended that you read it before installing your first scsh
package. What follows is a very brief summary of this documentation,
intended to get you started quickly.
1. Get Sunterlib 0.4 from Installation
============
http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/sunterlib/release.pkg/0.4/sunterlib-0.4.tar.gz Installation of a scsh package is performed by launching the
"scsh-install-pkg" script, which is part of the scsh installation
library. This script must be launched from within the directory which
resulted from the expansion of the current package's archive, i.e. the
one containing the file you are reading now.
and install it. A list of all the arguments accepted by the "scsh-install-pkg" script
can be obtained by launching it with the "--help" option. One of these
arguments, "--prefix", is mandatory and specifies the location where
installation should be performed. Ideally, you should use the same
prefix to install all scsh packages, as this makes them easier to
manage and use.
2. Configure scx For example, to install the current package in
"/usr/local/share/scsh-modules", you should type the following:
Just `cd' to the directory containing this INSTALL file and type scsh-install-pkg --prefix=/usr/local/share/scsh-modules
./configure Provided that no errors are encountered during installation, a
message will be printed at the end explaining how to use the newly
* Use the --with-scsh-includes switch to specify the path to the installed package.
include directory of the scsh installation (default is
/usr/local/include).
* Use the --with-scsh-libraries switch to specify the path to the
library directory of the scsh installation (default is
/usr/local/lib/scsh)
* Use the --with-scsh-modules switch to specify the path to the
directory where Sunterlib is installed if this directory is not in
the scsh library path (default is
/usr/local/lib/scsh/modules). See the description of the -ll
option in the scsh manual for more information about the library
path.
3. Build scx by typing
make
This will compile the scx binary and the scx image scx.image. The scx
binary behaves like an ordinary scsh binary but includes bindings for
Xlib and starts the scx.image from the installation directory as
default image.
You may need to specify additional libraries for linking. This can
either be done by extending the LIBS variable in the Makefile or by
setting the LDFLAGS environment variable as in
env "LDFLAGS=-lsocket -lnsl" make
4. There is currently no "install" target, it is recommended to leave
scx and scx.image in the build directory.

executable and an image "scx.image" that the scx executable will
load. Later versions of scx will provide a more convenient way of <http://lamp.epfl.ch/~schinz/scsh_packages/>
building the system.
In short, this means that you can install scx by unpacking the scx
tarball and issuing the following command in the created directory:
scsh-install-pkg --prefix /path/to/your/package/root
See the file INSTALL for the generic installation instructions for
scsh packages.
The scx package accepts a special option "--with-xft <yes/no>" that
controls the installation of the Xft bindings. Enable this option if
your local X installation provides Xft.
You need to install Sunterlib 0.6 or later from
<http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/sunterlib> to use scx.
