I' ve installed AfterStep Windows manager (.deb
package)
by typing " dpkg -i afterstep.deb " in
console.
What should I do next? Shall I compile
afterstep? And how?
I have tried very hard to find some explanations in online
manuals and faqs, but I don't understand a lot of
things
that is written in them. Look at this example (this
is debian
tutorial under chapter "Removing and installing
software):
16.6 Compiling software
yourself
You´ll have to have -dev packages
installed.
Put it in /usr/local, /opt, or your home
directory.
The cofingure --prefix; make; make install
routine.
Ís there anybody in this world who can understand
what this guy
means by this shit: "The configure --prefix; make;
make install routine."
Should I configure something? Should I write
"--prefix" somewhere? And
where? In console? Should I after that write "make"
in console or maybe write
all this shit in console?
The same problem I meet when I read the
"readme" document which is
included in afterstep.deb file. This guy write( for
example ) this:
Type: .
/configure
But, the problem is, that he doesn't write where to
type . /configure. In console?
And what to type? Should I type ". / "
before the word "configure" ? or I should
write the whole path to the file and then type
configure?
Is there anybody who can help? How to install and
run AfterStep?
Thanks,
