Building libcaca
o Run configure then make. Useful configure flags are:
--enable-ncurses: support for the ncurses library
--enable-slang: support for the SLang library
--enable-conio: support for MS-DOS conio.h
--enable-x11: support for native X11 rendering
--enable-gl: support for OpenGL rendering
--enable-win32: support for the Windows console
--enable-network: support for network output
--disable-imlib2: remove Imlib2 support in cacaview
o Cross-compilation examples:
./configure --disable-imlib2 --host=i386-pc-msdosdjgpp
./configure --disable-imlib2 --host=i586-mingw32msvc
Using libcaca
o Look into the src/ directory for source code examples.
o Compiling a libcaca program is fairly simple:
gcc -c foobar.c -o foobar.o `caca-config --cflags`
gcc foobar.o -o foobar `caca-config --libs`
Binary packages
o As the API is not stable yet, everyone should statically link libcaca
with their programs or libraries. DO NOT DISTRIBUTE SHARED VERSIONS
OF LIBCACA.
