INSTALLATION

In order to compile and install ald, follow these steps:

 1) Enter the ald-x.x.x source tree and execute "./configure",
    a script which will configure various settings for the
    build.

 2) After configure finishes, execute "make" to compile the
    package.

 3) Finally, become root if necessary, and execute "make install"
    to install the debugger. The default installation path is
    /usr/local/bin, but this can be changed with the --prefix
    option to configure as explained below.

 If you wish to install ald in a location other than /usr/local/bin,
run configure with the --prefix option. For example, if you want
binaries installed in /usr/bin, type:
  ./configure --prefix=/usr

 If you wish to force compilation without curses support, run
configure with the --disable-curses option:
  ./configure --disable-curses

ald is known to compile cleanly and run on the following
operating systems:

  FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE, 4.1-STABLE, 3.2-RELEASE
  OpenBSD 2.7
  Linux 2.2.*, 2.4.*

TROUBLESHOOTING

  If something goes wrong during the build or installation and
your operating system is among those listed above, it is most
likely a bug, and I would like to hear about it.

Special Note: If the configure script outputs a warning about
              being unable to detect your machine's word size,
              you *must* manually edit include/defs.h and
              #define WORDSIZE <value>, where <value> is the
              number of bytes in your machine word. On most intel
              systems, this is 2.

  If you believe you have encountered a bug please email me
at cosine@ellipse.mcs.drexel.edu supplying as much information
as you can.
