* Linux and Raspberry Pi Notes *
1) Install requirements
     sudo apt-get install ncurses-dev cmake
2) IF WINDOWING DESIRED:
  2A) Install sfml 2.1 or later from the SFML web site.
       Copy files to /usr/local
  2B) Install dependencies
       sudo apt-get install libglew1.5
       sudo apt-get install libjpeg62
3)Build
  cd builddir  # A subdirectory of this one
  cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" ..
  make

* MacOS Notes *
0) Install homebrew
1) brew install cmake
2A) If desired, install SFML package according to instructions. If you're using Mavericks (10.9) or later, you need to download the libc++ version.
2B) In the SFML directory, run install.sh SFML files to /usr/local and to frameworks. Ignore the error about being unable to install the Xcode templates for SFML
3) cd lite; mkdir build
4) cd build
5) cmake --G "Unix Makefiles" ..

* Windows MinGW Notes *
0) Install MinGW
1) Install SFML-2.1 directory at the same level as Lite.
   Pick the right version for your compiler. For CodeBlocks/Ming I picked the 32-bit version.
2) Run this inside a cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..
3) Start a mingw32 shell and cd to the build directory
4) mingw32-make

*** CMAKE INSTRUCTIONS ***
** Basic cmake instructions for all platforms **
cd litedir
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "generator name" <options> ..

* CMAKE Command Line Options *
<options> can be
 -DNO_SFML=1  Set this to disable compiling/linking with SFML libraries 
 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug   Enables Debug builds
 -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64  Force 64 bit compile on MacOSX
Note that options are sticky.

** cmake Options for Specific Platforms **
+ Windows: CodeBlocks +
 Generator name: "CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles"
 Within CodeBlocks, open lite.cbp and compile
+ Windows: MinGW +
 [Generator name: "MinGW Makefiles"]
 Start MinGW shell
 cd buildir
 cmake -G "MinGW Makefiles" ..
 mingw32-make
+ Windows: Visual Studio +
 Generator name: "Visual Studio 12" or "Visual Studio 12 Win64"
 (Note that these builds don't include SFML which I found too complex to install.)
 Open lite.sln and compile
+ Linux or MacOS: Unix make +
 Generator name: "Unix Makefiles"
 make
+ Linux or MacOS: CodeBlocks +
 Generator name: "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles"
 Within CodeBlocks, open lite.cbp and compile

* OBSOLETE: Mac Notes *
Install SFML package according to instructions. Copy files to /usr/local and to frameworks
Compiler Search paths:
 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/usr/include
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/usr/include/c++/4.2.1
/usr/local/lib

Library Search path:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/usr/lib

I deleted this library search path as it didn't appear useful. It generated compiler warnings because those libraries weren't compiled with 64 bit x86 in mind.

* OBSOLETE: Codeblocks Compilation Notes *
There are two global variables that must be set every time: extralibs and fileext. CodeBlocks will prompt at the beginning of the session. Look up the appropriate value from the table below. If an entry is blank, enter a space instead.
