INSTEAD 2.4.1
=============

WARNING! For successfull building you must install these development packages 
(names may vary in your distribution):

	sdl, sdl-mixer, sdl-image, sdl-ttf, lua5.1, iconv
	and gtk+2(3) (to build with open file dialog)

Optionally you may use:
	sdl2
	lua5.2/luajit

luajit is recommended for slow machines.

0) Prepare for building
=======================

Unpack source package with this command:
	$ tar xzvf instead_<version>.tar.gz

Change current dir to project's build dir:
	$ cd instead-<version>

There are several ways to build package.

1) On Ubuntu
============

Install stable (old) version from repo:
	$ apt-get install instead

Or use ppa with latest version:
	http://launchpad.net/~instead/+archive/ppa

2) On Debian based systems you can build deb package
====================================================

	$ sudo apt-get install liblua5.1-dev libreadline-dev libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-ttf2.0-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
	$ sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper
	$ debuild
	$ cd ..
	$ sudo dpkg -i instead_<version>.deb

3) On arch linux
================

Install stable version from community:
	$ pacman -S instead

Or build from svn:
	$ make PKGBUILD
	$ makepkg -s

And, I think, you have enough skills to build package yourself. ;)

4) On FreeBSD
=============

Install instead from ports with pkgng:
	# pkg install instead
Or:
	# cd /usr/ports/games/instead
	# make install

Or build from tarball:
	$ ./configure.sh
	$ gmake

5) On RPM based system
======================

There is .spec file in tarball.

6) For other distributions 
==========================

You have three choices:
	a) try run ./configure.sh and follow instructions
or
	b) try to use experimental cmake rules
	c) do all things manually

7) Build using cmake
====================
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
$ sudo make install

Warning, in some systems (like Arch linux) you need to define LUA dir, to help cmake.
For example (Arch linux):
$ LUA_DIR=/usr/include/lua5.1/ cmake ..

To build standalone version, use this (in ./build/ directory):
$ cmake .. -DSTANDALONE=1
$ make && make install
$ cd standalone
$ ./sdl-instead

8) Manual build
===============
To build game, that runs just from build dir use Rules.make.standalone
----------------------------------------------------------------------
	$ rm -f Rules.make
	$ ln -s Rules.make.standalone Rules.make
	$ make clean
	$ make

If build process has failed check Rules.make.standalone and make changes if needed.

	$ ./sdl-instead

To build game for system install
--------------------------------
	$ rm -f Rules.make
	$ ln -s Rules.make.system Rules.make
	$ make clean
	$ make

If build process has failed check Rules.make.system and make changes if needed.

	$ sudo make install

	$ sdl-instead

Enjoy.
