RGBDS README
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
RGBDS (Rednex Game Boy Development System) is a free assembler/linker package
|
|
for the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. It consists of:
|
|
|
|
- rgbasm (assembler)
|
|
- rgblink (linker)
|
|
- rgbfix (checksum/header fixer)
|
|
|
|
rgbds-linux is a fork of the original RGBDS which aims to make the programs
|
|
more like other UNIX tools.
|
|

|
|
Installing RGBDS (UNIX)
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
To build the programs on a UNIX or UNIX-like system, just run in your terminal:
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
Then to install the compiled programs and manual pages, run (with appropriate
|
|
privileges):
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
After installation, you can read the manuals with the man(1) command. E.g.,
|
|
|
|
man 1 rgbasm
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: the variables described below can affect installation behavior when given
|
|
on the make command line. For example, to install rgbds in your home directory
|
|
instead of systemwide, run the following:
|
|
|
|
mkdir -p $HOME/{bin,man/man1,man/man7}
|
|
make install PREFIX=$HOME
|
|
|
|
|
|
PREFIX: Location where RGBDS will be installed. Defaults to /usr/local.
|
|
|
|
BINPREFIX: Location where the RGBDS programs will be installed. Defaults
|
|
to ${PREFIX}/bin.
|
|
|
|
MANPREFIX: Location where the RGBDS man pages will be installed. Defaults
|
|
to ${PREFIX}/man.
|
|
|
|
Q: Whether to quiet the build or not. To make the build more verbose, clear
|
|
this variable. Defaults to @.
|
|
|
|
|
|
