1 SIDPlayer Installation Instructions
2 ===================================
3
4
5 BeOS
6 ----
7
8 The easiest way is to download one of the precompiled BeOS binary archives
9 (x86 or PowerPC, depending on your CPU architecture). Simply unexpand the
10 archive to your hard drive.
11
12 SIDPlayer can also be used as an input plugin for CL-Amp by Claes Löfqvist
13 and SoundPlay by Marco Nelissen. To use it with CL-Amp, copy the "SIDPlayer"
14 application to your CL-Amp "Plugins" directory (you have to copy it, placing
15 a link won't work) and rename it to "in_SIDPlayer". To use it with SoundPlay,
16 simply copy or link the program to your SoundPlay "Plugins" directory (it's
17 not necessary to rename it).
18
19 If you downloaded the source, you can compile it using the following
20 command:
21
22 $ make -f Makefile.BeOS

25 Unix

28 SIDPlayer requires the Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL) library, available
29 from the official SDL site:
30
31 http://www.libsdl.org/
32
33 If you didn't install SDL from source, you have to install the "SDL-devel"
34 package to compile SIDPlayer.
35
36 As with any autoconfiguring GNU software, installation is as easy as this:
37
38 $ ./configure
39 $ make
40 [become root]
41 # make install
42
43 For a complete list of options that the "configure" script takes, type
44
45 $ ./configure --help
46
47 The most important option is
48
49 --prefix=PREFIX
50
51 which you can use to specify a different installation directory (the default
52 is /usr/local). The "sidplayer" executable will be installed in PREFIX/bin.
