Build Instructions

Distributions of released versions already include pregenerated images.

The following tools are required to (re)generate the PNG and XPM images from their sources:

Before generating the images check the commented macros in the Makefile for any macros you may need to override depending on the used toolchain and operating system.

By default, all files will be installed under the "/usr/local" directory, a different installation path prefix can be set via the prefix macro. In addition, a second path prefix can be specified via the DESTDIR macro which will be prepended to any path, incuding the prefix macro path prefix. In contrast to prefix, the path specified via the DESTDIR macro will only be prepended to paths during installation and not be used for constructing internal paths.

The following instructions assume that make is GNU make, on some platforms it may be installed under a different name or a non-default path. In order to start the build process run make all. After a successful build, run make install to install the theme files.

Previously generated images can be removed by running make clean.
