configure --prefix=/home/john make make install exit Starbase Data Tables - An Ascii Relational Database for UNIX DESCRIPTION ----------- This distribution is made up of five independent parts. Each was developed by a different author and comes with its own licensing arangements. The distribution contains a set of command line filter programs and a library of subroutines to read/write and operate on data tables. Documentation is provided at: http://www-cfa.harvard.edu/~john/starbase/starabase.html A top level configure script is provided. Among other things, this creates a Makefile for each package, based on the hand-created Makefile.in files. It should suffice to run configure and then run make. Each of the lower level directories will be configured and compiled from here. - > configure --prefix=xxx > make > make install - 1. tablelib, tablesrc, utillib - starbase library and program source code.
