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.

Installation
|
||
|
|
============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, to install the current package in
|
||
|
|
"/usr/local/share/scsh-modules", you should type the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scsh-install-pkg --prefix=/usr/local/share/scsh-modules
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Provided that no errors are encountered during installation, a
|
||
|
|
message will be printed at the end explaining how to use the newly
|
||
|
|
installed package.
