-To make and install GF (Updated for version 2.4 and 3.0beta).
-
-1. Unpack GF and go to the source directory (the place where this
- INSTALL file is - so you have probably done this already!)
-
- tar xvfz GF-2.4.tgz
- cd GF-2.4/src
-
-3. Make sure you have GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler), preferably version 6.8.
- NOTICE: GHC 6.10 does not work with GF source yet.
-
- ghc --version
-
-4. If you are building the darcs version, run autoconf (in src/):
-
- autoconf
-
-5. Run configure
-
- ./configure
-
- If you want to install the GF somewhere other than /usr/local, use
- the --prefix flag. E.g.
-
- ./configure --prefix=/usr
-
- If you experience problems with readline, try:
-
- ./configure --with-readline=no
-
- You may need to run "make clean" after ./configure when you change the
- readline setting.
-
-6. Compile with GNU make:
-
- make
-
- or
-
- gmake
-
- (if your system has a proprietary make)
-
- The binary is sent to the file GF/bin/gf .
-
-7. Move files to their right places:
-
- make install
-
-8. To run GF, the following environment variables must be set:
-
- GFHOME the GF directory, e.g., "$HOME/project/GF-2.4"
- GF_LIB_PATH the GF library directory, e.g,, "$HOME/project/GF-2.4/lib"
-
- (Usually, you do this in ~/.login, if your shell is any *csh,
- or in ~/.profile, if your shell is either of sh, ksh, zsh or bash.
- Afterwards, you have to start a login shell to have the settings available.)
-
-9. For a quick test:
- Start gf, load a grammar and parse a string:
-
- cd $GFHOME/examples/tutorial/food
- gf FoodIta.gf FoodEng.gf
-
- -- when gf has started and shows the prompt >:
-
- > parse "this cheese is very very Italian" | linearize -treebank
-
- -- this is the response from GF:
- Is (This Cheese) (Very (Very Italian))
- this cheese is very very Italian
- questo formaggio è molto molto italiano
-
- > generate_random | linearize -treebank
-
- > help
