Build Instructions
------------------
Disclaimer: This installation steps have only been exercised using Ficl
4.1.0. With new versions you will likely have to make some adjustments
to this instructtions or to the files within this directory. Think of this
information as "recommendations" -- not necessarily proven instructions.
1. CD to apps/interpreters/ficl
2. Download Ficl: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ficl/files/
3. Uznip the Ficl compressed file.
For example, 'unzip ficl-4.1.0.zip' will leave the file
apps/interpreters/ficl/ficl-4.1.0
4. Configure to build Ficl in the apps/interpreters/ficl directory using
the configure.sh script.
For example, './configure.sh ficl-4.1.0' will leave the Makefile
fragment 'Make.srcs' in the ficl build directory.
5. Create your NuttX configuration. Using the 'make menuconfig', you
should select:
CONFIG_INTERPRETERS_FICL=y
6. Configure and build NuttX. On successful completion, the Ficl objects
will be available in apps/libapps.a and that NuttX binary will be
linked against that file. Of course, Ficl will do nothing unless
you have written some application code that uses it!
