====== Build Geany on BSD ======

The required packages are listed in the [[https://github.com/geany/geany#requirements | README]].

The //rst2html// dependency is part of the //py-docutils// or //py3docutils// package.

It's recommended to use the provided "autogen.sh" script. If configuring fails with the error "A compiler with support for C++11 language features is required.
" (and you've verified that g++ or clang++ is installed), use

  CXX=eg++ ./configure
  
or

  CXX=clang++ ./configure
  
Once configure completes, run "gmake" to start the build.

After you first run "autogen.sh", you may want to re-run "configure" with any desired options.

For extra information about configuring Geany on BSD, you can view the [[https://github.com/openbsd/ports/blob/master/devel/geany/Makefile | OpenBSD ports Makefile]].
