Installing Slash'EM with a GTK interface ---------------------------------------- This document describes the installation of Slash'EM with a GTK interface on X11. The GTK interface is another alternative to the Athena-widgets interface found in ../win/X11. You can download GTK+ from http://www.gtk.org/. You need GTK+ 1.2 or later to use this code. The GTK interface comes from JNetHack version 1.1.5 and was written by Issei Numata (issei@guru.gr.jp). JNetHack can be downloaded from http://www.jnethack.org/. 3D tiles are not yet supported in Slash'EM. To use this code: 1. follow the directions for the UNIX installation (in ../sys/unix) to create the Makefiles. 2. ../../include/config.h define GTK_GRAPHICS (search for it). You can comment out TTY_GRAPHICS if you want to, or leave it in to support both interfaces (in which case be sure you have the right curses libraries etc. required for that interface). You may define X11_GRAPHICS and/or QT_GRAPHICS in addition to support multiple windowing ports (and tty as well, if you want) in the same executable if you so desire. 3. ../../src/Makefile add $(WINGTKSRC), $(WINGTKOBJ), and $(WINGTKLIB) to WINSRC, WINOBJ, and WINLIB respectively, and compile. This will give you an executable supporting both GTK and tty windowing. To support multiple windowing ports, change the definitions of WINSRC, WINOBJ and WINLIB to include all the relevant variables. 4. ../../Makefile (the top-level makefile) change CNF_SHARE_DATND to include $(CNF_SHARE_GTKND). If you want to support the other windowing ports, include their $(CNF_SHARE_XXXND) variables also. CNF_SHARE_GTKND should normally include all the various flavours of x11tiles to allow the user to select which tile set he/she would prefer at runtime. If you will always be using the same one however, you can remove the others. 5. Follow all the instructions in ../../sys/unix/Install.unx for the remainder of the installation process. 6. Consider adding the lines below to your .slashemrc (or equivalent if you don't run UNIX), as they are likely to give the best interface for this window port: TILESET=name:Small tiles, file:x11tiles TILESET=name:Big tiles, file:x11bigtiles, transparent TILESET=name:Big 3D tiles, file:x11big3dtiles, transparent, pseudo3D OPTIONS=tiles:Big 3D tiles Set the tiles option to your preferred tile set. If not set, the GTK port will default to the first valid tile set found. 7. Look at GAMEDIR/gtkrc (or FILE_AREA_SHARE/gtkrc if using file areas) and overide the styles in your local gtkrc (~/.gtkrc by default) if so desired. The fontset must consist of fixed width fonts only. J. Ali Harlow, ali@juiblex.co.uk
