Installing backshift with configure+make:
- Download the code
or check it out.
- Configure (below are three ways, pick one of the three):
- Use Pypy3 - fast, and appears pretty much bugless in recent versions
- ./configure --python /usr/local/pypy3-2.4.0/bin/pypy3
- Use CPython 3.x - slow, but makes use of the reference implementation of Python
- ./configure --python /usr/bin/python3
- Use CPython 3.x with Cython - a bit faster
- ./configure --python /usr/bin/python3 --use-cython
- Install
- Backshift should now appear in /usr/local/bin.
- You can also give "./configure --prefix /usr" or similar, to change where backshift gets installed.
By default, it goes under /usr/local.
