Atleto - Optaining and Installing

Optaining and Installing Atleto

Obtaining

You can download the latest version of Atleto from its webpage, http://www.uebbing.com/atleto. You can also obtain the CVS version from there.

Requirements

The following requirements must be met for either compiling or running Atleto:

Qt 3.0.x installed on either Windows or Linux/Uinx
The environment variable QTDIR must point to the correct Qt library.

Compiling

Atleto is a cross-plattform application, designed to run both on Linux and its Unix derivats and Windows.

Building on Linux

After you have downloaded Atleto, you have to unpack the archive.

Type "tar xzf atleto_x_xxxxx.tar.gz", while the "x" should be replaced with the version number, for version 0.2pre2 that would make tar xzf atleto_0_2pre2.tar.gz
Change to the new directory -> "cd atleto"
Once there type "qmake atleto.pro"
then "make"

Note that on some enviroments, like SuSE 8.0 "qmake" is not i your path, you have to point to it, typing "/usr/lib/qt3/bin/qmake atleto.pro".

Building on Windows

At the time writing atleto 0.2pre2, QT 3 for Windows must be purchased, even for this GPL project, as there has been no free version available yet.

additional requirements: MS Visual C++ 6.0 (I am not sure about .Net version and/or other compilers)

1. Step:

run the following command from a DOS prompt
> qmake -t vcapp atleto.pro -o atleto.dsp

This command will create a MS VC project file from the .pro file. If this command does not work, check your Qt installation, in particular whether your PATH points to the Qt executables.

2. Step

Start MS Visual C++ and choose "Open Workspace..." to select the project file atleto.dsp (note that you must set the file filter to "*.dsp").
You should be able to build the project without problems.

Installing

Once compiled, the program can be run from any location, but you will probably want to either copy the executable to a standard path for executables (e.g. /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin or c:\Program Files\...) or/and modify your PATH variable accordingly.

When first running "atleto" you will get a messaging stating that the data file could not be opened.
Just hit "OK" and either open one of the example files or start editing and save a new file.
