This will setup a configure script +and Makefile.in, and you will be ready to compile with +$ ./configure [--add-options-here] && make +Once it's done compiling, +$ make install +should put the required files in their respective directories. + + +Please submit any bugs in the CVS branch to nano-devel@lists.sourceforge.net. +[FIXME needs change for Savannah too] -- 2.39.5
