Welcome to the Atlas project. =================================================== The primary web page for this project is: http://atlas.sourceforge.net For basic installation instructions see the "INSTALL" file. To use the Atlas program, you must have some of the scenery from FlightGear (a freeware flight simulator) installed. These files can be found at the FlightGear homepage: http://www.flightgear.org You might need to help Atlas find the FlightGear base data directory (often /usr/local/lib/FlightGear). If your FlightGear base directory is somewhere else, you can either set the FG_ROOT environment variable, or use the --fgroot=path command-line option to specify the FlightGear base directory. To build under Unix, follow these steps: ./autogen.sh ./configure make make install The `configure' shell script accepts a few Atlas-specific options: `--with-fgbase=prefix' specify the location of the FlightGear base package This points the root directory of the FlightGear installation (the directory which includes sub-directories such as Aircraft, Airports, Docs, Scenery, etc.) `--with-plib=prefix' specify the prefix path to plib If you use this option, `configure' expects to find two subdirectories here: `include/plib' (containing header files) and `lib' (containing libraries). `--with-simgear=prefix' specify the prefix path to simgear Similar to plib, if you use this option, `configure' expects to find two subdirectories here: `include/simgear' (containing header files) and `lib' (containing libraries). `--with-libcurl=prefix' specify the prefix path to libcurl This project is GPL'd.
