11# Dekagen is a bash script. It should work on all UNIX-like platforms.
12
131. Untar the distribution package:
14
15	$ gunzip dekagen-1.0.tar.gz
16	$ tar xf dekagen-1.0.tar
17
18
192. Change into the dekagen distribution directory:
20
21	$ cd dekagen-1.0
22
23
243. No automatic installation is provided.
25
26Be root. Then move the dekagen executable and the manual page to their
27respective installation directories (e.g. /usr/local/bin,
28/usr/local/man/man1). Be sure you set the execution rights accordingly and the
29files are owned by root or whoever owns binaries on your system. E.g.:
30
31	# install -m 755 dekagen /usr/local/bin
32	# install -m 644 dekagen.1.gz /usr/local/man/man1
33
34After this, create a directory for the documentation files at an appropriate
35place (e.g. /usr/doc/dekagen or /usr/share/doc/dekagen), and move all
36documentation files into that folder. E.g.:
37
38	# install -d -m 755 /usr/share/doc/dekagen
39	# install -b -p -m 644 *[A-Z] /usr/share/doc/dekagen

44# Dekagen is a front-end to several others programs.

46Be sure you have already installed on your system:
471. cdda2wav, cdparanoia, dagrab, or tosha, for ripping from CD;
482. 8hz-mp3, bladeenc, l3enc, lame, mp3enc, or notlame, for conversion into
49   MP3, or oggenc for conversion into Ogg-Vorbis;
503. optionally, xmcd for CDDB lookups and automatic naming;
514. and id3ed, id3tag, id3tool (v.1.2 or newer), or mp3info, for labelling the
52   MP3 files with ID3 tags.
