Requirements

Paje is an Openstep/GNUstep application. The GNUstep core libraries (Makefile, Foundation, GUI and backend) are required to compile and execute it. The libraries are written in Objective-C, thus it is often better to compile them with the last gcc-3.x and the last ObjC runtime.

Installation

TAR, RPM, DEB

The tar file is the plain source of Paje. Paje is compiled as any other GNUStep package, in a valid GNUstep environment (source /.../GNUStep.sh), with make; make install.
The following packages where produced on a Debian SID (unstable) with the GNUStep package of SID at the compilation date and the make rpm command. The .deb was produce by alien-ing the rpm. It may work in any other linux distribution, but this is unsupported.

source 20041022

This source required a version of gnustep newer than june 2004 to be able to load the gorm file (you just get the icon, no window, if your gnustep version is too old). Fonts are New: Colors may be defined into the trace. Fonts file is the set of fonts use by the art backend of gnustep (to put into gnustep /GNUstep/System/Library).

source 1.1.0_pre of 20040726

This source required a version of gnustep newer than june 2004 to be able to load the gorm file. New: the order of the containers is now saved.

source of 20040122, gnustep-(base|make) 1.9.1, gnustep-(gui|back) 0.9.2

RPM, Mandrake 8.0

Following some RPMs to use with the Mandrake 8.0. To install them, you need to install GCC 3.0.4 (you may need to compile it), libtiff-devel, libxml2-devel, openssl-devel, libgmp.
you need to compile ffcall (./configure; make; make install)

Sources

It should be possible to compile directly on any complete OpenStep ou GNUstep installation.
