Installation Part II
Now comes the frontend.1 Installing Racket
aptitude install racket |
For Windows users: You will have to manually install the dll for the sqlite3, please consult the Google
2 Installing the BystroTeX library
As a normal user (i.e. not root), exectute:
git clone https://github.com/amkhlv/amkhlv |
cd amkhlv |
raco pkg install --link bystroTeX/ |
Now you should be able to read the documentation manual in bystroTeX/doc/manual/index.html, but it is not very useful. It is better to just follow examples.
3 Installing the BystroTeX executable
cd bystroTeX/ |
raco exe bystrotex.rkt |
This should create the executable file called bystrotex. You should copy it to some location on your executable path (maybe /usr/local/bin/).
4 Building sample slides
Now Now go to the sample folder:
cd ../examples |
Remember your /path/to/bystroConf.xml ? For sample slides to build, you need to symlink it to here:
ln -s /path/to/bystroConf.xml ./ |
Generally speaking, the location of the server configuration file is kept in the bystro-conf struct which is defined in the header of the .scrbl file.
Now let us go to the sample slides directory:
cd bystroTeX_manual |
and proceed to the next slide...
