README.dev - Texinfo developer information.

|
|
|
The development sources for Texinfo is available through anonymous cvs
|
|
at Savannah, see
|
|
http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=texinfo
|
|
|
|
This distribution uses whatever versions of automake, autoconf, and
|
|
gettext are listed in NEWS; usually the latest ones released. If you
|
|
are getting the Texinfo sources from cvs, or change the Texinfo
|
|
configure.ac, you'll need to have these tools installed to (re)build.
|
|
You'll also need help2man. (All of these are available from
|
|
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu.)
|
|
|
|
Here's the order in which to run the tools for a fresh build:
|
|
|
|
autoheader # creates config.in, not necessarily needed every time
|
|
aclocal -I m4 # for a new version of automake
|
|
automake
|
|
autoconf
|
|
configure CFLAGS=-g --enable-maintainer-mode
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
(with arguments to taste, of course.) Or you can run
|
|
|
|
./bootstrap
|
|
|
|
instead of the various auto* tools.
|
|
|
|
|
|
One final note: If you would like to contribute to the GNU project by
|
|
implementing additional documentation output formats for Texinfo, that
|
|
would be great. But please do not write a separate translator texi2foo
|
|
for your favorite format foo! That is the hard way to do the job, and
|
|
makes extra work in subsequent maintenance, since the Texinfo language
|
|
is continually being enhanced and updated. Instead, the best approach
|
|
is modify Makeinfo to generate the new format, as it does now for Info,
|
|
HTML, XML, and DocBook.
