xde-theme-telcom
===============

Package `xde-theme-telcom-1.2.3` was released under CCPL:cc-by-nc-nd-3.0
license 2021-12-08.

This is a theme and a set of backgrounds for the _XDE (X Desktop
Environment)_ that provides a set of backgrounds on
a Telephone Switches and Offices theme.
This theme uses the Squared-cadet style from the [`xde-styles`][11]
package.

The source for `xde-theme-telcom` is hosted on [GitHub][1].

Release
-------

This is the `xde-theme-telcom-1.2.3` package, released 2021-12-08.
This release, and the latest version, can be obtained from [GitHub][1],
using a command such as:

$> git clone https://github.com/bbidulock/xde-theme-telcom.git

Please see the [RELEASE][3] and [NEWS][4] files for release notes and
history of user visible changes for the current version, and the
[ChangeLog][5] file for a more detailed history of implementation
changes. The [TODO][6] file lists features not yet implemented and
other outstanding items.

Please see the [INSTALL][8] 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 CCPL:cc-by-nc-nd-3.0 (primarily because
the base styles used to develop these styles were licensed under this
license).
Please see the license in the file [COPYING][10].

Please note that xde-theme-telcom is no longer released as
a tarball and is only released as git commits; use:

$> ./autogen.sh
$> ./configure --version

to determine the version associated with a given commit in the
checked out working directory. Note that this is the same version
as executing:

$> git describe|sed 's,[-_],.,g;s,\.g*,,'

in the checked out working directory.

Note that only HEAD commits are stable: do not attempt to use any
other commit as only HEAD is synchronized with other packages in
the suite.

Quick Start
-----------

The quickest and easiest way to get `xde-theme-telcom` up and
running is to run the following commands:

$> git clone https://github.com/bbidulock/xde-theme-telcom.git
$> cd xde-theme-telcom
$> ./autogen.sh
$> ./configure
$> make
$> make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install

This will configure, compile and install `xde-theme-telcom` 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][8].

Prerequisites
-------------

This package needs the [`xde-styles`][11] package to be useful and also
requires the `xde-setbg(1)` program from the [`xde-ctools`][12] package.

Issues
------

Report issues on GitHub [here][2].
