Hi! That's the readme file for the sources.

0. Urgent! I'm in a hurry ...
This is a really simple explanation, I strongly suggest reading the
INSTALL.txt file.
If you are running Linux, djgpp, Cygwin or MinGW equiped with most UNIX
tools (shell utils, file utils, perl, make, etc.) you can try the following:
- Install, configure, make and make install the Turbo Vision library (last version available).
- Do the same with the editor, here is how if you don't know:
- Run the configure script (./configure or configure).
- Examples
- linux:/usr/src/tvision# ./configure c:\djgpp\contrib\tvision>configure
- If all is OK run "make".
- If all is OK just run "make install".
With it you'll get the editor compiled and installed.
If the installation prefix directory is wrongly guessed call the configure
script passing --prefix=dir as argument.
Example:
linux:/usr/src/tvision# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
- Introduction:
For information about copyrights read the copyrigh file, the editor is mostly GPL/LGPL. I made it GPL because is the less restrictive license for developing, not for people trying to use the editor's sources. Why? if the code is GPL I can use GPL sources in my code without problems and I want to use good code from others instead of reinventing things. Note: I put a lot of effort to make the compilation smooth but you should read all the docs and get all the needed tools.
2. How to compile:
The file INSTALL.txt contains some basic instructions and explains which file you have to read according with your system.
Happy hacking.
