How to run FSP:
The first step in running this fine software (:) is to get it to
compile. Every effort on my part will be made to make this code
compile and run on any reasonable system. The information in this
file CURRENTLY pertains only to Unix and Cygwin users.
file CURRENTLY pertains only to Unix and probably to Cygwin users.
Configuration:
The first step is to run the configure script provided in this
directory. This will generate a good makefile and a file called
config.h in the include directory. These files are vital for the
compilation of the system.
Building:
FSP uses SCons software construction tool. Building was tested
with SCons 1.2.0 and Python 2.5, but older versions will probably
work fine. Prior to building FSP you need to download and install
SCons from http://www.scons.org.
configure can take several optional switches. Most important
switch is --disable-timeout. This option switches fsp clients
into classic infinite retry mode which is preferred by people
with very flaky networks.
SCons is replacement for configure and make utility; there is no
separate configuration step. Building with SCons is very similar
to using make. Run 'scons' to compile and 'scons install' to
install. You can skip compile part. 'scons install' will do both
steps then.

Compilation:
At this point, you should just be able to type 'make'
