I've downloaded cdk.tar.gz tar -zxvf cdk.tar.gz extracted to /root/tar-4.3.10 read README cd tar-4.3.10 ./configure make make install The README then says to start playing
What do I do next??
Well, start playing :-). I'd suggest going into /root/cdk-4.3.10/examples, running a make, and checking that the make works, and the ensuing executables do interesting CDK'ish types of things. (draw menus, text widgets, and whatnot) Once that's going, unpack the cdk-perl stuff (into a clean directory, perhaps) run: perl Makefile.PL make if you get an error, let us know what it is. Errors I have seen involve not finding the CDK .h files, you fix that by editing the Makefile and changing INC = -I/usr/include/ncurses -I/home/glover/local/include/cdk to something like: INC = -I/usr/include/ncurses -I/usr/local/include/cdk around line 95, as I recall if you get a build, run make install and you should be away. To test it, go to the demo directory, and do a perl fulldemo and see if it works. If it does, you're underway Cheers Si -- Simon Blake simon@katipo.co.nz Katipo Communications +64 25 300 825
