ardour.sh.in	major rationalization of use of search paths. ardour now has just 4 functions used to define how external resources are located: ardour_config_search_path() (for system or user specific configuration data), ardour_data_search_path() (for machine, user and system independent data), ardour_dll_directory() (base directory where shared libraries are found) and user_config_directory(). These are now used throughout the code. the config, data and dll paths/directories can be overridden by environment variables. the user config dir is added as the first element of the first two search paths, and use selectively when searching for a few other things.	2012-05-18 17:24:06 +00:00

README

* Installing Ardour:

On most distributions, you can double-click the file "install.sh".

Alternatively, you can use a Terminal to run the installer.  Navigate
to the folder and run:
	
	./install.sh
	
The installer will ask for your root password (sudo/su), and copy the 
contents of the appropriate bundle (32-bit or 64-bit) to your /opt
folder. 


* Links and Menu entries:

In addition to installing the program, the installer will create:
1) A desktop link to launch the Ardour application
2) A menu entry in Gnome/KDE
3) An uninstall script in the /opt folder.


* Uninstaller:

To uninstall Ardour, run the uninstaller script in the /opt folder.
This will remove the app, desktop links, menu links, and
the uninstaller itself.


* Manual Installation:

If you would prefer to install Ardour in a custom location, then you
may simply unzip the appropriate package (32bit or 64bit) to your
preferred location and run the Ardour application from the "bin"
folder inside.
