I write a number of my own programs, and have always had a bit of a problem writing the manpage, I have used the excellent 'ManEdit' but development on this has been stalled for a number of years.<br>
So I finally decided to write my own and this is the result.<br>
<br>
Debian or Ubuntu install.<br>
sudo apt-get update<br>
sudo apt-get install build-essential <br>
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev<br>
sudo apt-get install libgtksourceview2.0-dev libaspell-dev<br>
<br>
Fedora Install<br>
sudo yum update kernel*<br>
sudo yum install gcc-c++ glib2-devel gtk2-devel gcc<br>
sudo yum install gtksourceview2-devel ctags webkitgtk-devel aspell-devel<br>
<br>
OpenSuse ( Leap 42.x ) gtk2.<br>
<br>
sudo zypper install make gcc gcc-c++<br>
sudo zypper install xorg-x11-devel ctags gtksourceview2-devel gtk2-devel vte2-devel<br>
<br>
Optional installs<br>
sudo zypper install aspell-devel aspell aspell-en<br>
<br>
To install:<br>
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --enable-aspell<br>
make<br>
sudo make install<br>
<br>
If you don't have aspell installed then don't enable it!<br>
<br>
If you have problems importing a manpage or a system manpage try:<br>
<br>
GROFF\_SGR=1 manpageeditor<br>
<br>
You can make this permenant by adding:<br>
export GROFF\_SGR=1<br>
To your shell start up files, ~/.bashrc for instance.<br>
<br>
Please read the BUGS-ETC file.<br>
