Installation instructions

To install a binary, just uncompress it and copy to a place that is on your path, for instance, in /usr/local/bin. You may want to rename it to gf.

If you want to use GF as a batch compiler, put the following script in the same place as the GF binary. If it is not /usr/local/bin, change the prefix variable in the script.

The Mac OS X binary (Intel) requires Readline from Mac Ports. To install, see above item.

The Windows binary is easiest if you have Cygwin. To install, see above item.

To compile and install from source:

    tar xvfz gf-3.0beta.tgz
    cd GF/src
    autoconf
    ./configure
    make
    make install

To install the libraries, unpack them in the place to which your GF_LIB_PATH points.

    cd $GF_LIB_PATH
    gtar xvfz gf-lib-1.4.tgz

If this variable hasn't been defined, it is useful define it, e.g.

    export GF_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/lib/gf/
