Re: [gedit-list] Problems Editing Code

[Nacho <nacho resa gmail com>]

Hi Larry,

Some tips to build gedit:

./configure --prefix=your_prefix --libdir=your_libdir

if you are working with the git version try ./autogen.sh instead of ./configure

then you have to do: make

and after that make install or sudo make install if your prefix needs root access.

Regards.

I'm new to open-source programming, and I'm still an amateur at using make. I'm running into problems while trying to edit code. Whenever I edit gedit.c, I can see my changes reflected in the executable after I type "make." Other than that, my modifications don't do anything except for compile. Is there another command I should be using that's not "make" when I'm modifying code? I've been trying to edit "gedit-commands-search.c," but to no avail. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated. I'm using version 2.30.3.
