Introduction
------------

Sire is a build utility. The build scripts (relations) are easy and flexable to
write. For an example of a 'relations' file see 'sire/relations'. For further
documentation on sire see 'http://the-hut.net/sire'.

sire        --- Build utilty
getinclude  --- Include dependence for C/C++
msh         --- Minimal shell for use with sire (platform independence)

To Build on Unix type platforms
-------------------------------

> cd ./sire
> ./build.ksh

This will attempt to build using the GNU C++ complier g++. The script can be edited to build with a native compiler.

By default the build files will be installed into './install'. the script can also be modified to change this.

To use sire for thye subsequent builds add the install directory to the PATH

> PATH=${PATH}:`pwd`/instal

To Build 'getinclude' (with 'sire')
-----------------------------------

> sire -C ./getinclude install -DINSTALL=`pwd`/install

To Build 'msh' (with 'sire')
----------------------------

> sire -C ./msh install -DINSTALL=`pwd`/install

To Build 'sire' with 'sire'
---------------------------

> sire -C ./sire install -DINSTALL=`pwd`/install

However, this depends on 'getinclude' which must be built first.
