-to build this program, you need to have those packages:
-
- gcc (including the libc6 dev package and the g++ package)
- tcl >= 8.4 (the dev package)
- tk >= 8.4 (the dev package)
- make
-
-then type commands like:
-
- cd src
- ./configure
- make
- make install
-
-The ./configure program has some options that you can use if for some
-reason you want to disable the use of certain libraries for some reason.
-You may also use it to specify a different installation directory: for
-example you install programs with --prefix=$HOME but then you need to have
-something like this in my Bash configuration (.bashrc and/or .bash_profile):
-
- export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
- export LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/lib
- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/lib
- export C_INCLUDE_PATH=$HOME/include
- export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=$HOME/include
-
-to start DesireData, type a command like:
-
- desire mystuff.pd
-
-You may also make a build without the "make install" step and then start
-pd from the src directory like this:
-
- cd src
- wish desire.tk mystuff.pd
-
-If you want to have both DesireData and another kind of PureData on the same
-system, use a different --prefix or else just keep the compiled source
-directories ready for a new "make install" phase each time you want to switch.
-
-Most externals are compatible; almost all exceptions are those that use
-a component called "t_widgetbehavior": [popup], [widget], [playlist],
-[sonogram], [grid], [display].
-
-Most abstractions are compatible too; almost all exceptions are those that
-use "click" messages to fake mouse actions.
-
-There are some options of DesireData that are available as commandline
-arguments, for example selecting a language (Spanish, German, etc). You
-can get a list of them by typing:
-
- desire -- -help
-
-Most other configuration can be done through the Preferences items in the
-File menu of the main window, or by editing the corresponding configuration
-files ".pdrc" and ".ddrc" in the home directory.
-
-
-Options that are planned for future versions of DesireData and are currently
-in available in devel_0_39 :
-
- lockfree = enables lockfree fifos for thread synchronization
- newhash = provides a bigger hash table for symbols
- atomic = use atomic operations for the internal stack counter
- threadedsf = broken in 0.39; in 0.38, provides threaded soundfiler
- daz = Build using DAZ flag on x86-SSE2 cpus (must be set to False for AMD cpus)
- app_pkg = install builds application package structure for OSX
- desire = enables building of experimental MVC gui
- simd = build with simd extensions (x86 only?)
- pdlib = build pd as a dynamic library
- optimize = optimize for given cpu-type
- prefix = install directory prefix
-
