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. In addition, you need to have the Sunterlib library installed. See http://www.scsh.net/resources/sunterlib.html for more information about obtaining and installing Sunterlib. 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.
