This is the README accompanying the source code to Simon Tatham's
puzzle collection. The collection's web site is at

If you've obtained the source code by downloading a .tar.gz archive
from the Puzzles web site, you should find several Makefiles in the
source code. However, if you've checked the source code out from the
-Puzzles Subversion repository, you won't find the Makefiles: they're
+Puzzles git repository, you won't find the Makefiles: they're
automatically generated by `mkfiles.pl', so run that to create them.
The Makefiles include:
- - `Makefile' should work under GNU make on Linux, provided you have
- GTK installed to compile and link against. It builds GTK binaries
- of the puzzle games.
+ - `Makefile.am', together with the static `configure.ac', is intended
+ as input to automake. Run `mkauto.sh' to turn these into a
+ configure script and Makefile.in, after which you can then run
+ `./configure' to create an actual Unix Makefile.
- - `Makefile.vc' should work under MS Visual C++ on Windows.
+ - `Makefile.vc' should work under MS Visual C++ on Windows. Run
+ 'nmake /f Makefile.vc' in a Visual Studio command prompt.
- `Makefile.cyg' should work under Cygwin / MinGW. With appropriate
tweaks and setting of TOOLPATH, it should work for both compiling
source file (puzzles.but), which is the preferred form for
modification. To generate the manual in other formats, rebuild it,
