Build Instructions
==================

To build LCLint you need:

   o a (hopefully ANSI-conforming) C compiler. On most modern Unix systems,
     cc will work fine. For older or less standard systems, gcc is
     recommended.
   o make, the GNU make utility. If you don't have GNU make installed on your
     system, download it from ftp.gnu.org.
   o standard Unix tools: gzip, tar

1. Download the LCLint source package (lclint.src.tar.gz).

   Copy this package to the directory where you want to build LCLint.  When
   the tar file is extracted, it will create an lclint-2.4 subdirectory.

2. Uncompress the package:
      gzip -d lclint.src.tar.gz 

3. Extract files from the tar archive:
      tar xf lclint.src.tar

4. Run: configure
  
   This will create a Makefile with settings for your system. If you 
   want to install LCLint or associated libraries different
   directories, edit the Makefile.

5. Run: make

   It is best to do this in an emacs shell or a buffered terminal,
   so you can scroll through the output.

6. Run: make test

   Examine the test output. If there are errors, send a bug
   report to lclint-bug@sds.lcs.mit.edu
