GNU make and GNU gcc (version 4.x) are required for compilation. Simply run "./configure"; if this fails, please refer to the output of "./configure --help" for additional hints and, if necessary, provide additional flags to the configure script. Once the script finishes successfully, run "make" (or "gmake"). This should install the compilation products in the subdirectory "auto/". Documentation can be created by the command "(g)make doc". However this requires the doxygen application to be installed on your system. The documentation will be created in the subdirectory doc/.
