To clone the repository use Git.
$ git clone https://github.com/uhlin/swirc.git
Swirc currently depends on:
Which means that on for example a Debian GNU/Linux system you need to install these packages before building:
# apt install gettext libcurl4-openssl-dev libhunspell-dev libidn11-dev libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev
And on Mac OS X, provided that Homebrew is installed, issue:
$ brew install hunspell
$ brew install libressl
Prompts that begin with a hash(#) symbolizes that the command shall be executed as root, while prompts that begin with a dollar sign ($) symbolizes that the command shall be executed as a normal user.
xbps-install -S gettext-devel hunspell-devel libcurl-devel libidn-devel libnotify-devel ncurses-devel openssl-devel
On the BSDs and GNU/Linux the configure script will per default generate make definitions that expects that the C compiler GCC is installed on your system. A make utility must also be present. Regarding Mac OS X I suggest that you install Xcode. Due to certain circumstances I no longer can confirm that building for OS X works.
$ cd /path/to/swirc
$ ./configure
$ make
The following options can be passed to the configure script:
Installing it under /usr/local:
$ sudo make install
Installing it under /home/user without the translations (in which case you also should've passed --without-libintl to the configure script):
$ PREFIX=/home/user make install-no-lc-msgs
To build Swirc for Windows you must have Visual Studio.
So, fire up the command prompt for Visual Studio where the needed tools (the compiler, etc.) are loaded into the environment. The regular command prompt won't work. Then:
cd c:\path\to\swirc
nmake -f Makefile.vc
Done!
To make a distribution of Swirc use:
nmake -f Makefile.vc dist
Examples:
$ make clean
$ nmake -f Makefile.vc clean
