1 | This release of Version 5.9 of Icon is tailored to the 4.3bsd distribution |
| 2 | of user-contributed software. | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | To build the system, type: | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | make all | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | To install the various components for general use, type: | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | make install | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | This will place the user-level programs icont and icon-pi in /usr/new; make | |
| 13 | a library directory /usr/new/lib/icon and copy in several files which are | |
| 14 | used by icont; and place man pages for icont and icon-pi in /usr/man/mann. | |
| 15 | "make all" is a subset of "make install". One needs to be super-user to | |
| 16 | do the installations. | |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | The system is configured to run with binaries in /usr/new and the | |
| 19 | executable library in /usr/new/lib/icon. To change this, it is necessary | |
| 20 | modify the Setup entry in the Makefile. Consult tr84-13 in the docs | |
| 21 | subdirectory prior to installation if this is required. The makefile | |
| 22 | entry setup-pwd configures Icon to run with the library programs (which | |
| 23 | normally reside in /usr/new/lib/icon) in ./bin. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Note that various Icon documents refer to system as being rooted at "v5g" | |
| 26 | but the normal v5g directory is not in this distribution. Whenever documents | |
| 27 | talk about v5g/... this refers to /usr/src/new/icon/... in this distribution. | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | "make clean" removes object files and other files that are built by the | |
| 30 | compilation of the system. Executables in ./bin are not removed. | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | Troff sources for documents related to Version 5.9 of Icon are contained | |
| 33 | in the "docs" directory. See "READ.ME" there. | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | In addition to Icon proper, there is a library of Icon programs with | |
| 36 | manual pages and a "personalized interpreter" system for persons who | |
| 37 | want private versions of Icon with their own modifications. | |
| 38 | See docs/tr84-13 for more information and pointers to other documents. | |
