GFlame v0.4 - 2000-09-27 - http://triq.net/gflame.html
What is GFlame ?
GFlame is a cool little graphics hack fully fledged and with some little gadgets GTK has to offer. The GUI is done with Glade.
It does what you would expect it to do, draw a flame on the screen.
How to install ?
GFlame use GTK. You must have at least version 1.2 (the lastest is now the 1.2.7). To install this library, refer to its documentation.
You must have a recent C++ compiler (gcc 2.95.x for example).
Watch the INSTALL file to compile and install the software.
In short, you must do: (stand-alone gflame)
$ ./configure
$ make
$ su
# make install
or: (gnome panel plugin)
$ ./configure --with-gnome-applet
$ make
$ su
# make install
