HOWTO build
How to build Yudit?
Author: Gaspar Sinai
Version: 2023-01-03
Unix/Linux using rpm
--------------------
rpmbuild -tb yudit-version.tar.gz
Unix/Linux using tar
--------------------
tar xfz yudit-version.tar.gz
cd yudit-version
./configure
make
make install
Windows
-------
. Install Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET
On Window98 You need at least Visual C++ 6.0, and the command prompt
should be invoked with
command /e:2040 /p
2. Install UnxTools
http://sourceforge.net/projects/unxutils/
If you put the package in
C:\Build\Unix
set PATH=C:\Build\Unix\bin;C:\Build\Unix\usr\local\wbin;%PATH%
3. Unpack yudit-3.0.8.tar.gz into V:\Build\Yudit\yudit-3.0.8
gunzip yudit-3.0.8.tar.gz
tar xf yudit-3.0.8.tar
This directory is hardcoded into:
bin/wininst.bat, Makefile.conf(TOPDIR) and yudit.iss)
If you unpacked the source code into a different folder,
you need to modify these.
4. Compile
Execute the vcvars32.bat (32 bit) or vcvarsx86_amd64.bat (64 bit)
script in your compiler installation bin directory.
You should probably search for the vcvars32.bat or vcvars64.bat
files of your installed vc++ tree, and use those if you have problems.
cd yudit-3.0.8
cp Makefile.in Makefile
make
5. Prepeare (This will create C:\Build\Yudit\Install directory)
yudit-3.0.8\bin\wininst
6. Create package (This needs C:\Build\Yudit\Output directory)
Install Inno Setup Compiler (http://www.jrsoftware.org/isdl.htm)
Use C:\Build\Yudit\yudit-3.0.8\yudit32.iss (32 bit) or
C:\Build\Yudit\yudit-3.0.8\yudit64.iss (64 bit)
Compile the package. It creates an Output directory with the installer
executable.
Macintosh
---------
1. You need to download the source code for Yudit.
Check out latest version (3.0.8) and download it with curl.
curl -O https://yudit.org/download/betas/yudit-3.0.8.tar.gz
2. You need to make sure Your Mac has developer tools, XCode installed.
3. Open the terminal window
4. Unpack the source code
tar xfz yudit-3.0.8.tar.gz
5. Go to the source folder
cd yudit-3.0.8
6. Run the disk image builder tool
./build-for-macos.sh
It will print out the built dmg file.
Optionally this image can be enhanced with
a fancier installer with:
./post-build-macos.sh
by manually moving the icons and resizing the window.
8. Copy that file to ~/Download/ directory
9. Click on that file.
You can drop the Yudit image to /Applications, or better yet, you can install it:
cp -R /Volumes/Yudit/Yudit.app /Applications/
10. Close the image file in finder.
When you run yudit, it will create .yudit (dot-yudit) directory in your
home folder. TrueType font files, syntax checker file and keyboard
maps can be installed there.
