To make sure it can find Qt4, set the PATH so that +qmake from Qt4 is in the PATH (and comes before qmake from Qt3 in the PATH), +e.g.: export PATH=/opt/qt4/bin:$PATH; cmake . + +If you are using CMake >= 2.6.0, adjust the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH environment variable +instead of PATH to help CMake finding Qt4, e.g.: export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/opt/qt4; cmake . + +To uninstall cutecom simply delete the file "cutecom" and the file +"cutecom.desktop" amd your done. The config file is ~/.config/CuteCom/CuteCom.conf. + +Currently it is known to run on Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X, and porting to other systems +should be easy. +Everything platformspecific should be in QCPPDialogImpl::setNewOptions(). +Distributions welcome :-) +Now that it uses Qt4 it should also be portable to Windows. + +CuteCom is heavily inspired by Bray++ for Windows (http://bray.velenje.cx/avr/terminal/) + +Homepage: http://cutecom.sourceforge.net + +Alexander Neundorf +<neundorf@kde.org> |
