building Gem using autoconf
===========================
autoconf is the preferred way to build Gem.
#0 preparation
if you installed Gem from a released version, just go to the .../Gem directory
if you grabbed a development snapshot of Gem, you have to generate the autotools
first; just go to the .../Gem directory and do
.../Gem$ ./autogen.sh
#1 configuration step
run configure with the appropriate options
.../Gem$ ./configure
for a complete list of options try
.../Gem$ ./configure --help=recursive
a typical call would look like:
.../Gem$ ./configure --with-pd=/usr/include/pd --prefix=/usr -C CXXFLAGS="-g -O2"
#2 build
once configuration succeeded (it will not succeed if you miss crucial libraries
like openGL), build Gem:
.../Gem$ make
#3 finally install
.../Gem$ make install
this will install Gem e.g. into /usr/lib/pd/extra/Gem/
