Install Instructions

Installing CronosII

CronosII Is built using the GNU Autoconf and Automake Tools and friends. Integration with Gnome is comprehensive.

You may also run this application under a "pure" GTK environment without Gnome. (Though you will need gnome libraries and gnome print for some features.)

In short CronosII should be able to be installed anywhere the GIMP Tool Kit is available including ports of GTK to the Windows TM Operating System.

To build and run CronosII-0.2.2-23 MR2 - Eclipse you need to have the following libraries installed: If you are using a binary package e.g.. RPM or DEB please ignore this list. It should have been taken care of for you.

(my apologies to WindowsTM Users I'm not sure what they need beyond GTK)

Please let me know so that I can update this manual. or see the Section called Authors and Contributors in the chapter called Extensions, and other information

  3. CronosII is also available as a Debian binary package ( Since most of the development team use Debian GNU/Linux )

Note

If you are installing from tar balls please read the README and INSTALL files (at least) in the source. These are likely to be more up to date than this manual.

Other formats are possible not least of which are zip and debs. Support for these or other formats may be added should the demand for them warrant it.
