Fully Manual Installation +---------------------------- + + Note: if you do not wish to use axodraw2 with pdflatex, xelatex, or + lualatex, but will only use it with latex, then only the + first step is needed. + + 1. Copy axodraw2.sty to a suitable directory for LaTeX style files. + + 2. Compile the axohelp program by a command line like + + gcc -o axohelp -Wall -O3 axohelp.c + + (The exact details of the command line depend on your operating + system and which compiler you have installed for the C + language.) + + 3. Move axohelp to a suitable directory for executables. + + 4. (Optional) Copy axodraw2-man.pdf to a suitable directory for + LaTex package documentation. + + 5. (Optional) Copy axohelp.1 to a suitable directory for man pages. + + +B. Using autoconf etc: +--------------------- + + You can also make axohelp using the GNU utilities autoconf, + automake and autoreconf (if these are installed). Doing this is + enormous overkill for a program like axohelp with a single source + file and with no need to make adjustments dependent on the + operating system etc. Even so, we provide the files necessary for + the use of autoconf and automake, since these are needed when the + axodraw2 package is incorporated into TeXLive (which has an + enormous automated build process). So here are the instructions + for building with autoconf and automake. For these, it is assumed + that the GNU utilities autoconf, automake and autoreconf are + installed: + + As in Fully Manual Installation, but replace step 2 by + + 2'. Run + + autoreconf --install + ./configure + make + + Note that there are a couple of test scripts: axohelp.test, which + gives a rudimentary test, and axohelp-big.test, which gives a + comprehensive test on all axodraw2 objects used in the + manual. **Warnings**: a. You could get a spurious failure of a test + because of a mismatch between the line-endings of the test file and + the file generated by axohelp (UNIX \n v. MS-Windows \r\n). b. You + could also get spurious test failure because of differences in the + effects of rounding error with your compiled axohelp and the one + used on the test system. + |
