Compilation

The project uses c++0x (or is it called c++11 now?), mainly since I want to learn how to use it.

For that reason compilation requires g++4.6 at the least. Don't forget the -std=c++x0 flag if you're not using the Makefile

In addition, the GUI interface created uses gtkmm-3.0, so the package gtkmm-3.0-devel has to be installed.

The makefile might just work on Linux machines (I've tried it on 2, both Debian derivatives), but no guarantees :)
