Estimated hours taken: 0.5 Reduce the number of places where the version number is hard-coded. bindist/Mmake: Add `VERSION=0.6'. When creating a binary distribution, use `sed' to replace the strings `<VERSION>' and `<FULLARCH>' in the bindist.* files with the corresponding values. bindist/bindist.INSTALL: bindist/bindist.README: bindist/bindist.README.MS-Windows: bindist/bindist.configure.in: Replace hard-coded version numbers with <VERSION>.

# INSTALL - installation instructions and installation script
|
|
# for the binary distribution of Mercury.
|
|
#
|
|
# You need GNU C (2.6.3 or later) and GNU Make (3.69 or later) in order
|
|
# to use Mercury, though you don't need them to install this distribution.
|
|
#
|
|
# Step 0. Extract the files from the gzipped tar archive.
|
|
#
|
|
# Note: the mercury-*.tar.gz file itself contains
|
|
# some other .tar.gz files (lib.tar.gz, info.tar.gz).
|
|
# Do NOT mess with these nested .tar.gz files;
|
|
# they will be extracted automatically in step 2.
|
|
#
|
|
# Step 1. Run `configure'. (Just type `sh configure'.)
|
|
#
|
|
# By default, the files will be installed in the directory
|
|
# /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>.
|
|
# If you want the files to be installed someplace else,
|
|
# use the `--prefix <directory>' option to `configure'.
|
|
#
|
|
# Step 2. Run `make install'.
|
|
# This step will copy the various files that make up the distribution
|
|
# to their final places.
|
|
#
|
|
# Step 3. Check the permissions on the installed files.
|
|
# Add /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>/bin to your PATH, and
|
|
# add /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>/info to your INFOPATH.
|
|
# You can also add a WWW link to the Mercury documentation in
|
|
# /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>/lib/mercury/html to your WWW
|
|
# home page, and you may want to print out a hard-copy of the
|
|
# documentation from the DVI files in
|
|
# /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>/lib/mercury/doc.
|
|
#
|
|
# As a short-cut, steps 1 & 2 are listed below, so they can be replaced
|
|
# by just executing this script.
|
|
|
|
sh configure &&
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
# De-installation:
|
|
# ----------------
|
|
#
|
|
# You may eventually want to uninstall this version of Mercury
|
|
# (to free up disk space so you can install the next version ;-).
|
|
# If you installed in the default location, you can simply
|
|
# use `rm -rf /usr/local/mercury-<VERSION>' to uninstall.
