Building & Installing

UNIX-like systems (including Linux, Mac OS X, and Cygwin)

To build, you'll need an ANSI C compiler and a POSIX-compatible shell. If you believe you have those things and the build does not work, please file an issue.

1. Use git to fetch the code:

   git clone https://github.com/baguette/tmk.git && cd tmk

2. Use the provided bootstrap script to build a bootstrap version of tmk:

   ./bootstrap.sh

3. Once the bootstrap is done, use tmk to build itself:

   ./tmk

4. Optionally, build the documentation (you'll need pandoc):

   ./tmk doc-html # for HTML documentation

There's also a doc-pdf for PDF documentation and a doc-all target for both.

5. To install TMk, use the install target provided in the TMakefile. Some helpful parameters are PREFIX (defaults to /usr/local) and (for package maintainers) DESTDIR (defaults to the root directory):

   ./tmk PREFIX=/usr install

6. To install the documentation (to $PREFIX/share/doc/tmk):

   ./tmk PREFIX=/usr install-doc
