  Installation


  Installing RealTimeBattle should not be too difficult; in case you get
  problems, please send your bug report to rtb@users.sourceforge.net and
  tell what went wrong.


  To compile and install RealTimeBattle, you only need to execute the
  following commands:


  % ./configure [options]
  % make
  # make install



  Observe that GNU make should be used. If make fails, try gmake
  instead.

  You can change the settings by supplying options to configure, e.g. if
  you want a different install directory, compile in debug mode or turn
  off graphics or native language supprt. A full list of options is
  listed by


  % ./configure --help


  The following options are especially useful:


   --prefix=DIR              The root directory for all installed files,
                              default: /usr/local
   --exec-prefix=DIR         Root for architecture-dependent files,
                              default: prefix
   --bindir=DIR              Where the RealTimeBattle binary is placed,
                              default: eprefix/bin
   --datadir=DIR             Where data is installed
                              default: prefix/share
   --includedir=DIR          Where Messagetypes.h is installed,
                              default: prefix/include
   --infodir=DIR             Where info-files are stored,
                              default: prefix/info
   --with-rtb-dir            Directory for main installation,
                              default: eprefix/games/RealTimeBattle

   --disable-nls             do not use Native Language Support
   --with-included-gettext   use the GNU gettext library included here
   --with-nls-localedir=PATH directory where your locales are
                              default: datadir/locale

   --enable-debug          Compile for debugging
   --disable-graphics      Compile a version without a gui.
   --without-gtk           Same as --disable-graphics.



  Note that the default --prefix setting has from v0.9.11 been changed
  to /usr/local from /usr that was the default prior to v0.9.11. If you
  still want to use /usr, configure using the command


  % ./configure --prefix=/usr

  If you have an old version of RealTimeBattle, it could be necessary to
  remove the old version first (especially if you change the --prefix
  option).

  The gtk options can be useful too.

  Note that in order to install to directories other than your own, you
  have to be root.

  If you need to supply extra flags to the c or c++ compiler, you can do
  this by changing CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS respectively. For example, using
  bash,


  % export CXXFLAGS=-Wall


  will add '-Wall' when compiling a c++ program.

  It is possible to compile RTB from another directory than the top
  source directory. To do this follow these steps:

  % mkdir /path/to/RTB/builddir
  % cd /path/to/RTB/builddir
  % /path/to/RTB/sourcedir/configure [options]
  % make
