*****************************************************************

Installation:
-------------

Langage information:

PureBasic help is provided in 3 langages (English, German and French)
and you have to choose the right one for you (default is english).
They are located in the purebasic/ directory under the name *.help. The
one which is loaded is purebasic.help so replace it with another langage
if needed.


1) Recommanded (doesn't requiers root rights)

a) Setup the PUREBASIC_HOME environment variable to your purebasic
path. It can be done like this (if you have put purebasic in your
home directory:

export PUREBASIC_HOME=~/purebasic


b) Add the purebasic/compilers/ directory to you path, as it's
where all purebasic binaries are. This can be done like this:

export PATH=$PUREBASIC_HOME/compilers:$PATH


After these 2 steps, you should be able to type 'pbcompiler' in a shell
and you ready to use the IDE, just type 'purebasic'.


2) Not recommended, as it will dispatch files at several place of your filessystem. It can be useful for large deployment tough.

Use 'su -' to have root shell (if not already done)

Copy the 'purebasic/Compilers/pbcompiler' file in /usr/bin/
or any other directory in the PATH:

# cp purebasic/compilers/pbcompiler /usr/bin/

Next, move the whole 'purebasic' directory in /usr/share/

# cp -rf purebasic /usr/share/

If you don't have 'fasm', copy it in your path (fasm v1.45 at least)

# cp purebasic/compilers/fasm /usr/bin/

To test your install, just type:

# pbcompiler

It should output:
