Building the Documentation

Follow these instructions to build the Cygwin/X documentation source code:

1. Open a shell on your documentation build host; you should see a window like the following:

   Username@CygwinHost ~ $

2. Change the current directory to the documentation source code directory:

   Username@CygwinHost ~ $ cd cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0 Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0 $

3. Create a build directory and change the current directory to that directory:

   Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0 $ mkdir build Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0 $ cd build Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0/build $

4. Configure the documentation source code:

   Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0/build $ ../configure

   Note: Use ./configure --enable-hardcopy to enable building of all documentation formats, otherwise just HTML will be built

5. Build the documentation:

   Username@CygwinHost ~/cygwin-x-doc-1.0.0/build $ make all

6. Building the documentation is now complete.
