Graphite also does more than this, in that it can +handle cursor tracking and interaction with the application for string +selection, etc. + +In order to interact with the application or system, Graphite is embedded in +an application. You may want to write a custom font and render backend or use one +of the provided backends in the wrappers project. + +The *nix build system uses autoconf and automake including all the +conventions of those tools. This includes extended support for debug, +maintenance mode, etc. See the GNU autotools info pages for the appropriate +tools for help. + +If you have checked this source out of the Graphite Subversion repository or +a similar version control system you will need to generate the autotools +scripts and files (configure, Makefile.in etc) to do this run: + + autoreconf --install + +Please see INSTALL for information on building + +NOTE: +If you modify any configure.in or Makefile.am file you will need rerun +autoreconf like so: + + autoreconf + +For those changes to affect the configure script and makefiles. |
