Xwrits was written when my wrists really hurt. They don’t any more—most of the time.
Please see the man page (xwrits.1) for more information. The man page is on the Web at http://www.lcdf.org/xwrits/man.html.
You need an ANSI C compiler, such as gcc, and X11 libraries and includes.
Just type ./configure, then make. If checking out from source, start with
./bootstrap.sh (you will need an autotools installation).
If ./configure can’t find your X includes and libraries, you need to tell it
where they are. You do this with the --x-includes=DIRECTORY and
--x-libraries=DIRECTORY options.
./configure accepts the usual options. See INSTALL for more details.
