Installation
============
-The most common installation procedure on Unix-like systems looks as
-follows.
+The installation procedure uses CMake, as follows:
Unpack the tar archive and change into the unpacked directory.
- ./configure
- make check install
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake .. # CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/.local
+ make install
+You can set options for compiling using the CMake GUI by replacing the cmake
+command with
+
+ cmake-gui ..
+
+or by setting the options manually, e.g.
+
+ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/local ..
+
+in order to set the install prefix to ~/local
