WIN32 port of GROFF and friends done by Blake McBride
|
|
(blake@florida-software.com) 4/14/00.
|
|
|
|
This port differs from other ports in that it uses the Microsoft
|
|
compiler. The changes were done such that they only have effect on
|
|
the code when compiled with the Microsoft compiler.
|
|
|
|
Note that not all preprocessors and output devices have been ported;
|
|
missing are grohtml, grolbp, grn, refer, soelim, and groff. Besides
|
|
these programs, no utility program has been ported. Of course,
|
|
gxditview (which only runs on the X Window System, the standard Unix
|
|
GUI) is missing also.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following programs were used, running on Windows NT 4.0:
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0
|
|
Unix utilities under NT (gzip, tar, patch)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build Instructions
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
. Unpack groff (using gzip & tar) as follows:
|
|
|
|
cd \
|
|
gzip -dc groff-1.16.tar.gz | tar xvf -
|
|
|
|
. Now apply the patch file `win32-diffs':
|
|
|
|
cd \groff-1.16
|
|
patch -p1 < win32-diffs
|
|
|
|
Note that with older versions of `patch', you will get a lot of
|
|
*.orig files (most of them are empty) which can be safely deleted.
|
|
|
|
. Edit the file `src/include/defs.h' and adapt the path names to
|
|
your needs.
|
|
|
|
. Build everything by typing:
|
|
|
|
nmake -f Makefile.msc
|
|
|
|
You are done.
|
|
|
|
The `bin' directory contains some .cmd files to help show how to run
|
|
stuff. Since Windows 95/98 doesn't understand .cmd files, if you are
|
|
operating under that OS, you'll have to rename them to .bat files.
|
|
.bat files do have output redirection problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The changes I made fall into two categories.
|
|
|
|
1. Makefiles. Several makefiles were added. All makefiles were named
|
|
Makefile.msc.
|
|
|
|
2. The Groff build includes several scripts which generate auxiliary
|
|
files used by groff (such as DESC, I, R, prologue, etc).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Directories needed at runtime
