  16 <h1>GSSMP Developers</h1>
  17
  18 <p>At the moment GSSMP is primarily developed by
  19 <a href="http://www.artificialworlds.net/blog">Andy Balaam</a>, but I'd
  20 welcome help in the form of UI designs, suggestions, code patches and
  21 information.</p>
  22
  23 <h2>Languages, libraries etc.</h2>
  24
  25 <p>GSSMP is written in C using the GTK, GConf and gstreamer libraries.  It is a
  26 learning exercise for me because I want to get more involved with GNOME
  27 development.  (Any comments on how to integrate better with GNOME would be
  28 gratefully received.)</p>
  29
  30 <h2>Compiling from the source tarball</h2>
  31
  32 <p>To compile the program from source you will need the development libraries
  33 for gnome, gconf, and gstreamer (mail us if that list is missing something!).
  34 To modify the UI you will need glade 2.  On Ubuntu you can simply run:</p>
  35
  36 <p><tt>sudo apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgconf2-dev libgnomeui-dev
  37 glade-gnome</tt></p>
  38
  39 <p>Download the source tarball
  40 from the <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=187144&amp;package_id=219138">source
  41 download page</a> and untar and compile it like so:</p>
  42
  43 <p><tt>tar -xzf gssmp-*.tar.gz<br />
  44 cd gssmp-*<br />
  45 ./configure<br />
  46 make<br />
  47 cd src<br />
  48 ./gssmp</tt></p>
  49
  50 <p>There are more details in the file INSTALL which is included in the
  51 tarball.  If something goes wrong email the mailing list and we'll try to
  52 help.</p>
  53
  54 <h2>Getting the latest source code</h2>
  55
  56 <p>The GSSMP source is stored in a <a href="http://git.or.cz/">Git</a>
  57 repository.  To download and compile
  58 the latest code, ensure you have <a href="http://git.or.cz/cogito/">Cogito</a>
  59 installed.</p>
  60
  61 <p>On Ubuntu, getting Cogito is just a matter of:</p>
  62
  63 <p><tt>sudo apt-get install cogito</tt></p>
  64
  65 <p>To build and run GSSMP, run these commands:</p>
  66
  67 <p><tt>cg-clone http://www.artificialworlds.net/gssmp/git/gssmp.git<br />
  68 cd gssmp<br />
  69 ./autogen.sh<br />
  70 make<br />
  71 cd src<br />
  72 ./gssmp</tt></p>
  73
  74 <p>Contact us if you have any problems.</p>
