AcornICQ is the RISC OS ICQ client.

Requirements:
Norcroft C compiler
Objasm
Link
(All are included in the C/C++ Toolbox from Acorn)
CVS (for getting the sources and updates/commit changes)

Libraries needed:

Clib library (included in the C/C++ Toolbox)
OSLib (download from http://www.mk-net.demon.co.uk/oslib/index.htm)
Playit library (download from http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~rhudson/software/playit.html)
Syslog library (download from http://www.doggysoft.co.uk/ftp/syslog/)
Own build of Dreamscape (checkout from the CVS tree)

To build the sources:

- Checkout the sources from the CVS tree:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.acornicq.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acornicq login

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.acornicq.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/acornicq co acornicq

(This will check out the makefile, the sources and also the dreamscape library, make sure unzip the dreamscape library).

- Before compiling, you'll need to set up some paths

playit_src$Path needs to point to the playit header and object files (parent of the h and o dir)
Syslog$Path needs to point to the Syslog header and object files (parent of the h and o dir)
OS$Path needs to point to the OSLib header files
C$Path needs to point also to the Dreamscape and netlib headers

OSLib$Path needs to point to the OSLib lib file
Netlib$Path needs to point to the Netlib lib file
DScape$Path needs to point to the Dreamscape lib file

(ofcourse can you edit the makefile to change it for your own setup)

- Click on the MakeFile and it should compile.
