Vous avez le même texte en français, voyez le fichier : readme_lx-fr.txt Just a few words to help you for the installation of the program. You may also consult the documentation in French or English. Installation for GNU/Linux 1) You should first download the compressed tar archive : LinuxFurch2011.tgz Unzip and "detar" this archive : gunzip LinuxFurch2011.tgz tar -xvf LinuxFurch2011.tar This will create a directory Q2-11. In this directory you have : furch.x : The executable code which you can use directly on a PC with a Debian or Ubuntu and perhaps a Knoppix-Debian. For other distribs, you may have to compile the program (don't panic it will be easy). furch.conf : The configuration file for the furch code. It is an important file, you will have to modify it to adapt to your screen and settings. gtkb.rc : The second (and last) configuration file, this one is more specific to gtk2+ . You may change the font in it in accordance with your changes in furch.conf . dibenn1 : An utility file for furch.x . Note : These three files must remain into the directory Q2-11 other files : You have the source code and the header files (gtkb2_0.h,gtkb2**.c). You have also the makefile if you want to compile the code to obtain your furch.x file. The source code is released under the terms of the GPL licence. You also have splf1_ex an example of simplified norm dictionary. readme_lx-en.txt : This file. It is trying to explain how to install and compile the furch code. readme_lx-fr.txt : Same file as above but in French. 2) Now you have to download the dictionaries, they are the same as those for windows. You will unzip them : unzip dico1_quere.zip unzip dico2_quere.zip unzip roll1_kltg.zip unzip roll2_kltg.zip unzip yezh1_kltg.zip You have to put these files into your Q2-11 directory. 3) You can apply this software to your own text files as well as to the texts that you can download on Furch's web site. You must modify your furch.conf file to tell the software that you want it to read these texts. You can also write their file names in the book command line. On UBUNTU 7.10, you can create a launcher. Make a right click on your desktop, choose : make a launcher and in the window that is opening, you will be able to select an icon (FURCH-2011.icon has been included). You must also specify the command (the absolute path to furch.x) : /home/Your-name/Dir1/Dir2/Q2-11/furch.x COMPILATION for other linux distributions. Furch need only gcc and gtk2. Any version will do. These softs are in all distributions. You must first install them with the corresponding header files (the .dev packages). Then you will do : cd Dir1/Dir2/Q2-11 (change directory towards Q2-11) make -f makegtkb2 > w1 (execute makefile makegtkb2 with output into w1) This should compile without errors and then : ./furch.x (call the executable) I hope this software will work on your system. If you are pleased with it, why not write a dictionary of your own ? This furch release is dealing with multi-dictionaries. To write a dictionary is easy, it is plain text, no alphabetic order is required for the words. The same word can exist in different dictionaries. If the word is found in more than one dictionary, every dictionary with the word you clicked on can be displayed. In furch release 2 you have a command line to directly interrogate the dictionaries. The furch code, as it is GPL software, may be easily adapted to languages other than Breton. Alphonse Nandert February 2008.
