50) Changing Imakefile:
6======================
7
8If you are going to install xpat2 in your home directory, you
9have to change XPATLIBDIR and SCOREFILE in src/Imakefile.
10This can be done by typing 'patch < diff.noroot'
11If you don't have the xpm library, type 'patch < diff.noxpm'.
12You may also customize other options by editing src/Imakefile
13by hand, if you know what you do.
14
15Please note that src/Imakefile may be overwritten by
16src/Imakefile.none if you type 'make allinterfaces', which
17compiles several xpat binaries (for different widget sets).

201) Compiling:
21=============
22
23On a system properly set up, you may type 'make' to build the
24binary src/xpat2 from scratch.
25(Tested on PCs with Linux, HPs with HP-UX 9, SUNs, and RS/6000.)
26With the default configuration, you need imake, the Athena
27widget set, the Xmu library, and the Xpm library.
28By default, HPs don't have anything of this, you (or your system
29administrator) have to supply it. On SUNs, the GNU C-compiler is
30used.
31If you want to change the configuration, change the Imakefile
32in the src/ subdirectory BEFORE you type 'make'
33
34'make' from this level will do a 'make clean' first. If you
35want to continue an interrupted run of make, type 'make' in
36the src/ subdirectory.

392) Installing:
40==============
41
42Afterwards, type 'make install' (as root) to install the game
43in default directories.
44'make install' will copy a manual page into /usr/man/man6.
45You can change this path in the file src/Imakefile.
46The man-page doesn't explain everything. The 'make' run will
47provide you with a manual in DVI and Postscript form in the doc
48subdirectory, with is more complete.
49
50For Linux machines, you may want to do 'make install.fsstnd' instead,
51which differs from 'make install' only by the directory where the
52binary is installed. With install.fsstnd, it is /usr/games/bin, which
53conforms to the Linux Filesystem Standard.
54
55If you are not root and want to install xpat2 in your home directory,
56do 'make install.local'. Again, the default paths are defined in
57src/Imakefile and you may change them. The default directory for the
58binary is $(HOME)/bin in this case.
