Evolight installation guide =)

Building from code...
=====================

-- YOU NEED --
1. gcc (GNU Compiler Collection).
2. Installed and working version of Allegro 4(or above currently compiles with 4.0 and 4.1.4).
3. Installed version of bgui2 lib. Find it on... http://www.allegro.cc/ ...under the GUI libs section.
4. Indent, optional(GNU free software)

Step 1 +++
Unpackage the .zip or tar.gz. For tar.gz use...

$ tar -zxvf evolight.tar.gz

For zip files use winzip or the gzip(?) utility in linux.

Remember the package name may variy due to version information.

+++ Step 2 +++
Open your terminal and go into the evolight directory and type...

$ make

+++ Step 3 +++
Time to run the program in dos type the name of the game...

evolight

for Linux...

$ ./evolight

Other's... er i dont know but if there is a gui just double click 
the program file :).


Make file Info
==============
There are variuse opptions that can be supplyed to the linux makefile
the only one needed for a build is the defult 'all'. The others are as 
follows...

$ make goodlooking
$ make clean

The goodlooking will change the code to look better in any text editor. 
It uses the indent program so i dont know if it will work on DOS or 
windows. I think the cygwin(cygwin is a collection of GNU tools ported 
to windows) will be needed for windows to do this. I belive the GNU 
tools are avalible for most OS's so if you want to use this opption go 
get indent.

The clean opption removes any backup files and object files and the 
main evolight executable. The make files may need to be edited for this 
to work on your OS as i use Linux ill only test development stuff on 
Linux. If you have patches or updates for any other OS(or linux) ill be 
happy to intergrate them into the package and add your name to the 
helpers file :).
