[xde-desktop -- read me first file. 2020-02-10]: #
xde-desktop
===============
Package `xde-desktop-0.5` was released under GPLv3 license 2020-02-10.
This package provides a desktop for the XDE (_X Desktop Environment_).
As with other XDE utilities, this package is intended on working with
the wide range of lightweight window managers supported by the XDE.
This desktop was originally written in `perl(1)` and was part of the
`xde-tools` package, then later in "C" in the `xde-ctools` package. It
has now been split off to a separate package for those that just want to
run the desktop.
Release
-------
This is the `xde-desktop-0.5` package, released 2020-02-10. This
release, and the latest version, can be obtained from [GitHub][1], using
a command such as:
$> git clone https://github.com/bbidulock/xde-desktop.git
Please see the [NEWS][3] file for release notes and history of user
visible changes for the current version, and the [ChangeLog][4] file for
a more detailed history of implementation changes. The [TODO][5] file
lists features not yet implemented and other outstanding items.
Please see the [INSTALL][7] file for installation instructions.
When working from `git(1)`, please use this file. An abbreviated
installation procedure that works for most applications appears below.
This release is published under GPLv3. Please see the license in the
file [COPYING][9].
Quick Start
-----------
The quickest and easiest way to get `xde-desktop` up and running is to run
the following commands:
$> git clone https://github.com/bbidulock/xde-desktop.git
$> cd xde-desktop
$> ./autogen.sh
$> ./configure
$> make
$> make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install
This will configure, compile and install `xde-desktop` the quickest. For
those who like to spend the extra 15 seconds reading `./configure
--help`, some compile time options can be turned on and off before the
build.
For general information on GNU's `./configure`, see the file
[INSTALL][7].
