+I updated the INSTALL and configure.in file to change tha FreeType

+NeL is using the SGI iostreams, so i'm afraid that you will have to compile
+it.

+you could do a 'make -f gcc.mak clean' to delete all the ojects files,

+That's weird, it works fine for me :o)
+
+The installation line is in the builds/unix/install.mk file (line 51),
+Are you sure that the installation directory (ex: /usr/local/bin) is
+in your path ?
+

+The script is looking for freetype-config script in your path, it will change
+nothing to put in the NeL directoty, if it isn't in your path ;-)

+</I>&gt;<i> wrong and level one is named &quot;./configure&quot; ? ;-P
+</I>
+Thanks for your suggestion :-)
+
+We actually working on improving the documentation and build process, so it
+&quot;migth&quot; be easier in a near future ;-)
