This directory contains GNU sed. Please report all bugs and comments
|
|
to bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu.
|
|
|
|
This sed may run slower than some UN*X seds. This is because it uses
|
|
the regular-expression routines from Emacs, which are rather complete
|
|
and powerful, but not as fast as they could be. If you really care
|
|
about speed, use perl instead.
|
|
|
|
To compile:
|
|
|
|
1. Type `sh configure'. This shell script attempts to guess correct
|
|
values for various system-dependent variables used during compilation,
|
|
and creates the file `Makefile'. This takes a minute or so.
|
|
|
|
If you want to compile in a different directory from the one
|
|
containing the source code, `cd' to that directory and run `configure'
|
|
with the option `+srcdir=DIR', where DIR is the directory that
|
|
contains the source code. The object files and executables will be
|
|
put in the current directory. This option only works with versions of
|
|
`make' that support the VPATH variable. `configure' ignores any other
|
|
arguments you give it.
|
|
|
|
If your system requires unusual options for compilation or linking
|
|
that `configure' doesn't know about, you can give `configure' initial
|
|
values for variables by setting them in the environment; in
|
|
Bourne-compatible shells, you can do that on the command line like
|
|
this:
|
|
$ CC='gcc -traditional' LIBS=-lposix sh configure
|
|
|
|
2. If you want to change the directories where the program will be
|
|
installed, or the optimization options, edit `Makefile' and change
|
|
those values. If you have an unusual system that needs special
|
|
compilation options that `configure' doesn't know about, and you
|
|
didn't pass them in the environment when running `configure', you
|
|
should add them to `Makefile' now. Alternately, teach `configure' how
|
|
to figure out that it is being run on a system where they are needed,
|
|
and mail the diffs to the address listed at the top of this file so we
|
|
can include them in the next release.
|
|
|
|
3. Type `make'.
|
|
|
|
4. If the program compiles successfully, type `make install' to
|
|
install it.
|
|
|
|
5. After you have installed the program, you can remove the binary
|
|
from the source directory by typing `make clean'. Type `make
|
|
distclean' if you also want to remove `Makefile', for instance if you
|
|
are going to recompile sed next on another type of machine.
