<h2>Notes</h2>
<p>Note that the viDOOM makefile expects the <strong>include</strong>
command to be honoured.</p>

<h2>Instructions</h2>
<h3>Step 1</h3>
<p>Edit the makefile.</p>
<h3>Step 2</h3>
<p>Change the following line to the name of your platform:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>MAKEPLAT=djgpp</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<p>The following platforms are currently supported:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>DJGPP - </strong>Protected-mode 32-bit MSDOS
(Windows 9x / MSDOS + DPMI)</p>
</blockquote>
<h3>Step 3</h3>
<p>If you are going to use the install script, then update the
following line:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>INSTALLDIR=C:/viDOOM</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<p>so it points to the directory where you wish it to be
installed.</p>
<h3>Step 4</h3>
<p>Set the MKDS to the directory seperator for this platform.
This is used so that the makefile can safely access
subdirectories:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>MKDS=/</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<h3>Step 5</h3>
<p>If you wish to build the debug version remove the comment
(hash character - #) from the start of the following line:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><tt>DEBUG=-DDEBUG</tt></p>
</blockquote>
<h3>Step 6</h3>
<p>To make viDOOM simply invoke the make program for your system.
To install viDOOM invoke the make program for your system,
telling it to build the rule <strong>install</strong>.</p>
