$Id: INSTALL,v 1.5 2003/04/01 22:52:01 jtalkington Exp $ To install, run ./configure [options] make make install Configure options that are of note: --prefix=DIR Sets the base directory for the program, configuration, and man page files. --bindir=DIR Set this to your cgi-bin directory (defaults to /usr/local/bin, which is almost definitely wrong). All of these options can be changed in the config file (or must be set if the config file is disabled). --with-man=MAN If your man program is not called 'man', or if you need to pass flags to man to get non tabbed output (e.g. on MacOS X, this needs to be set to "man -P 'col -x'"). --with-manpath=MANPATH To set the built in MANPATH. This can be modified in the config file. This is used when generating section indexes, and is passed to man when --with-manpath-switch is specified. --with-manpath-switch=SWITCH Sets the switch used to pass the path to to man (defaults to none). If the manpath is set, but a switch is not specified, man is left to it's own devices to figure out the manpath. --with-section-switch=SWITCH Sets the switch used to pass the section to man (defaults to none, and the section is passed *before* the name of the man page you want) --enable-apropos=APROPOS Sets the name of the program that does keyword searches(defaults to apropos). To disable certain features, use the following options --disable-config Disable the use of a config file, and only use built in values. You'll need to use the above --enable and --with options if you want it to work properly. If you disable the config, you will need to edit src/cover_page.h to change the section, otherwise the cover page and search forms will not really work for your system, as the defaults are very generic. --disable-indexes Disable section index generation. Only use this if have used --disable-config or never want to generate indexes. You can disable indexes in the configuration file also. --disable-apropos Disable apropos searches. Use this if there is a problem the local apropos that will never get fixed. Apropos can also be disabled in the config file.
