INSTALLING CHPP
---------------

CHPP currently supports the following configurations through
the configure script:

    linux-i386
    linux-alpha
    linux-powerpc
    openstep-i386
    digitalunix-alpha
    aix-rs6000

Building CHPP on other platforms should not be a problem, since
it is written very portably and does not use a lot of platform
dependent features. Just try one of the configurations and see
how it goes.

Be sure you have GNU make, flex and GNU bison installed.

Change to the directory you have unpacked CHPP in:

    cd chpp-0.2

Use the configure script to choose the platform you want to build on.
configure recognizes the following configuration names:

    linux       Linux
    next        NEXTSTEP, OPENSTEP
    dgux        Digital UNIX
    aix         IBM AIX

For example, type

    ./configure linux

Now, just call GNU make, i.e.

    make

If CHPP builds without errors, you should run the regress tests, just
to make sure everything is fine:

    cd test/regress
    ./dotest

If all tests pass, change back to the main directory and install CHPP.
In this release, CHPP relies on being installed in /usr/local.

    cd ../..
    make install

Now you are set! Documentation in texinfo format is contained in the
directory doc/. HTML-format documentation can be found in doc/html/.

Happy CHPPing
