2=======================================

4This plugin is an attempt to re-implement the 0.9.x (and earlier) TUI
5function.  The code's not pretty, so beware!

7Please note, these instructions are only directly applicable to Linux.
8Windows and OSX targets will probably require modification of the
9CMakeLists.txt file.

22KNOWN ISSUES
23============
24
25The DummyDialog which is used to grab the focus and prevent global GUI
26actions from grabbing the key events away from the TUI is a little
27buggy...  specifically, if the user clicks somewhere, the DummyDialog
28loses focus and those global key bindings get in the way.

31BUILDING THE PLUGIN
32===================
33
340.  Install and build the SVN version of Stellarium as per the
35instructions on the Stellarium wiki:
36
37  http://stellarium.org/wiki/index.php/Compilation_on_Linux
38
391.  Set the environment variable STELROOT to the root of the Stellarium
40source tree.  The Stellarium build directory is expected to be:
41
42  $STELROOT/builds/unix
43
442.  Create a sub-directory builds/unix and change into that directory.
45
463.  Run:
47
48  cmake ../..
49  make
50  make install
51
52If all goes well, the relevant files should be built and copied to your
53~/.stellarium/modules directory.
