Installation ------------ To install libfap on UNIX-like system use the normal procedure: ./configure [--prefix=/opt or other options] make <become root if necessary> make install For detailed installation instructions see the INSTALL file. Usage ----- Usage info is available at http://pakettiradio.net/libfap/docs/ . A local copy of the docs can be generated by running doxygen with the attached Doxyfile. When in doubt, see the fap.h header file directly. Differences ----------- There is one intentional difference between the original Perl module and libfap. The Bob has apparently said that a space or a / can be placed in the beginning of station commment in order to separate it clearly from APRS data. FAP.pm removes these characters and also other whitespaces from beginning and end of the comment. Libfap does not remove these, as I believe that making things look nice is a job for user of the parser, not the parser itself. This way you can also use the original comment as-is, if you want to. 73 de OH2GVE
