Please make sure you have read the REQUIRES file before installing FahMon. Windows ======= If you have the installer, the process is self explanatory. If you have the zip file, it can be extracted wherever you want. Linux ===== If your distro is supported by the binary builds on the website, the easiest way to install FahMon is to use one of them. Installation is as simple as double- clicking the package and entering your root password. If you need to build from source, follow the instructions below. FahMon uses the familiar ./configure; make method for software building. Under normal circumstances these are the only commands you will need to run. Configure will detect and setup the necessary software and files, and make will compile the software for you. Full installation instructions: cd ./configure make sudo make install Depending on your Linux distribution, you may not have (or use) sudo. In which case you need to login as root with `su`, run `make install`, then `exit` To run FahMon, either run "fahmon" from a shell (it will work from anywhere in the system, no more need for shell scripts), or launch it from your Desktop Environment's Applications menu (if supported). You can add a shortcut item manually if your DE is not supported.
