You need an installed forms library. You need to know where it is + installed. Either version 0.86 or 0.88 will do. For version 0.88 + you need version 0.99.8 or higher of the compiler. + +2. Edit the Makefile in the current directory . You have to specify: + - which version of the forms library you use (0.86 or 0.88) + - The place of the forms library. (if not in /usr/lib). + - The place of the X library. (should be /usr/X11/lib) + - Where you want the forms libraries installed. + - Where you want the fd2pascal filter installed. + - Optionally, the path to the compiler and the pascal units. + +3. You should be all set to compile. type + make all + This will compile all the needed units, and the fd2pascal program which + translates .fd design files to pascal programs. + As of version 0.88, the fdesign program can directly issue pascal + code if you have fd2pascal installed. + +4. To compile the demo programs, type (still in the forms directory) + make demo + This will compile all the demo programs in the demo subdirectory. + +5. To install the units and the fd2pascal program, type + make install + This will install all units and the program in the directories you + specified. They will be created if they don't exist. + +More information on all this can be found on + http://tfdec1.fys.kuleuven.ac.be/~michael/fpc-linux/forms.html + +Enjoy ! +Michael Van Canneyt (michael@tfdec1.fys.kuleuven.ac.be) |
