[jazzplusplus-devel] Tex2RTF build

[Pete S. <pst...@gm...>]

Donald,

I guess we (I guess that means you since you are the documentation 
animal ;-) need to generate build instructions for Tex2RTF.  Here is how 
I do it...

Change directory to the jazzplusplus/tex2rtf directory and type 
autoreconf.  I usually checkout the entire svn tree, nit just the trunk, 
so I can get the web and tex2rtf directories.

$ autoreconf

Create a directory called BuildTex2rtf in parallel with the jazzplusplus 
  directory.  This is also in parallel with my Jazz++ build directory. 
The one we call Build in the instructions.

$ cd ../..
$ mkdir BuildTex2rtf

Now I run configure and make in the new directory.

$ ../jazzplusplus/texx2rtf/configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
.
.
.

We only use the console or non-GUI version of tex2rtf in our builds so I 
copy BuildTex2rtf/src/tex2rtf to a bin directory under my wxWidgets 
installation.

To be "normal" we should have the user type "make install" as root, or 
use "sudo make install" for distributions that prefer sudo.

Pete

BTW, what time zone are you in (+8, +9, +10, or +11)?  I'm in the state 
of California in the U.S.A or -8.
