  CVS help


  If you want to get the very latest snapshot of RealTimeBattle, you are
  advised to checkout the CVS tree from SourceForge
  <https://www.sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=561>. On this page there
  are more information on how to use CVS. It is also possible to browse
  the source there.


     Checking out:
        To check out simply do as follows:

        Note that the main branch at the cvs is in developing stage and
        may not compile at all, so don't expect it to work.

        First set the environmental variable CVSROOT to

        :pserver:anonymous@cvs.RealTimeBattle.SourceForge.net:/cvsroot/RealTimeBattle


     by using %export CVSROOT= if you are using bash or similar shells.
     or %setenv CVSROOT= if you are using tcsh or similar shells.

     Then go on and and login to the server and checkout:

     %cvs login
     %cvs co RealTimeBattle


     or if you want to check out the stable branch of the RealTimeBattle
     tree you have to do this:

     %cvs login
     %cvs co -r release-1-0-0-patches RealTimeBattle




     Requirements:

        To compile RTB from the cvs you will need automake, autoconf and
        sgml-tools (version 1.0.x) . The latter isn't necessary if you
        don't need to compile the documentation.


     Compiling:

        Before the actual compiliation can be started you need to create
        the configure script:

        % autogen.sh



     If everything goes well, you should be able to compile as usual
     now.

     Note that automake needs the file gtk.m4
     <http://www.lysator.liu.se/realtimebattle/Download/gtk.m4> , which
     isn't installed by default on some systems (e.g. FreeBSD).


     Internationalization

        To be able to create the *.gmo files you need to have gettext,
        preferably gettext 0.10.35 or later (see www.gnu.org
        <www.gnu.org> to download).


        If you don't want any other language than english, you don't
        need to install gettext, but you have to configure using

        % configure --disable-nls
