Part VI: Cello (finally ...)
Do we need to pull down the Tcl/Tk Togl widget at this point? I also grabbed Snack, or I think I did, not sure if that turned out be part of the standard distro. Ah, then there is Tile, again not sure if that is standard now.
Ah - right, the Togl stuff comes from http://togl.sourceforge.net/ and should be installed as a step in Part III.
- Get latest Cello (Cello 2.0) from CVS via anonymous access from common-lisp.net:22/project/cello/cvsroot co cello
- Locate the sub-directory ftgl-int and compile the C DLL/Library
in there 3. Locate all *config* files and adapt path names given in there for your environment 4. Load Cello via ASDF. Now you should be there. If there is any "How do I do this ?" in the list above I might warn you that this whole process easily can take a week when doing it the first time (it took me four weeks to get a clean build when first porting Cello to Linux in 2003).
At one point it was possible to divide and conquer the overall effort by first getting the demo in cl-opengl to run, than in any order cl-ftgl and cl-magick and cl-openal, and then finally run the lighting panel.
Yep. That would then be in cellodemo.
Cello is no "product" yet - so there's a fair amount of try and error in this... Hope this helps - wishing you success
Again, nice work.
The ultimate idea would be to have a Cello Installation Tool - "Cellist" ;-) - that "just" knows your Lisp implementation and your platform and "just" grabs the bits and pieces from some asdf-install - supported place and incrementally builds Cello based on a few user decision which had been gathered interactively. Yeah - dreaming away ...
