     STLPort need to be compiled. NeL is using the SGI iostreams and it require
     the STLPort compilation and a linking of NeL with the STLPort library.
  
     On a GNU/Linux platform you will need the following libraries and
     softwares :
  
        - Autoconf       <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html>
        - Automake       <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/automake.html>
        - Libtool        <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/libtool.html>
        - Lex / Flex     <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/flex/flex.html>
        - Yacc / Bison   <URL:http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/bison.html>
        - Mesa     3.3   <URL:http://www.mesa3d.org/>
  
     On some OpenGL implementations, you migth have some troubles, coming from
     the <GL/glext.h> file, to get NeL to compile. This file could be missing
     or not up to date. You will find the latest version of this file on SGI's
     website :
  
        - glext.h        <URL:http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/glext.h>
  
     Most of our documentation is done using Doxygen, so you might need it
     to read our prose and our code documentation. If you want have nice
     graphs like dependency graphs, collaboration diagrams, or graphical
     class hierarchy graphs you will need Graphviz :
  
        - Doxygen        <URL:http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/>
        - Graphviz       <URL:http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/graphviz/>
    
     Most of these softwares should be already installed on your system or
     provided on your installation disk.
  
     The given sofware or library version numbers are the ones that we are
     using. We don't know if it working with other (older or more recent)
     versions of these softwares or libraries. You are welcome to help us
     to define more precisely these informations ;-)

        You first need to compile STLport and FreeType libraries. It's a quite
        long compilation process, and you should carefully read these libraries
        documentation (at least the README and INSTALL files) before compiling
        and installing them.
  
        STLport Compilation :
  
           - Open a Dos window and go in the STLPort's src directory.
  
           - Rename or copy the "vc6-unicode.mak" to "Makefile".
  
           - Execute `nmake clean all` followed by `nmake install`.
  
        FreeType compilation, by using GNU Make :
  
           - You need to intall GNU make and to place it in the PATH.

           - Open a Dos window and go in the FreeType's directory.
  
           - Execute `make setup visualc' followed by `make`.
  
        FreeType compilation, by using an IDE :
  
           - Compile every (base and optionnal) library components listed
             at the end of the FreeType's INSTALL file.
  
       Set up Visual C++ to find the STLPort and FreeType libraries. This       Set up Visual C++ to find the STLPort and FreeType libraries. This

             The STLPort include *must* be inserted before the microsoft one or
             the compiler will take microsoft STL instead of STLPort STL.
