Building and executing NetSurf
=================================
To build GTK NetSurf on a UNIX-like platform, provided you have the relevant
build dependencies installed, simply run:
First of all, you should examine the contents of Makefile.config and enable
and disable relevant features as you see fit. Some of these options can be
automatically detected and used, and where this is the case they are set to
such. Others cannot be automatically detected from the Makefile, so you will
either need to install the dependancies, or set them to NO.
Once done, to build GTK NetSurf on a UNIX-like platform, simply run:
$ make
If that produces errors, you probably don't have some of NetSurf's build
dependencies installed. See "Obtaining NetSurf's dependencies" below. You
may need to "make clean" before attempting to build after installing the
dependencies.

The second one is how the netsurf launcher script controls it. The third
location is controlled by #define RESPATH in gtk/gtk_gui.c, and this is
the recommended way for packagers to change the location it searches,
