This is ugly right now, apologies in advance.
1. cd /opt/abiword (or wherver you build abiword)
2. cvs co aiksaurus
3. cd aiksaurus
4. ./configure --prefix=/usr
5. make
6. su; make install; exit;
7. cd gtk
8. g++ -shared -o libAiksaurusGTK.so AiksaurusGTK_*.cpp -lAikSaurus
9. cp libAiksaurusGTK.so /usr/include
10. cd abiPlugin
11. make
This will build libAiksaurusABI.so, which you can add to your plugins as
normal.
You will have to hack the makefile in step 11 and change ABIROOT if you build
AbiWord in a different directory than /opt/abiword.
Anyone can feel free to improve on this process. I'm terribly clumsy with
the autoconfig tools.
Sorry it took so long to reply... was out of town. ;)
