Installing on Cygwin

• Install apt-cyg

  instructions in the ‘Building’ section.

apt-cyg install wget make cmake gcc-core gcc-g++ openssl-devel libcurl-devel libxml2-devel libiconv-devel cygutils-extra

Building

$ make

Under the covers, make invokes cmake in a build directory; you may also use
cmake directly if you need more control over the build process.

Installing

$ sudo make install

These environment variables can be passed to make to do the right thing: PREFIX, DESTDIR, BINDIR, LIBDIR, MANDIR.

Running

If you’ve installed it:

$ lpass

Otherwise, from the build directory:

$ ./lpass

Documentation

Install asciidoc and xsltproc if they are not already installed.

$ sudo apt-get install asciidoc xsltproc

The install-doc target builds and installs the documentation.

$ sudo make install-doc

Once installed,

$ man lpass

You can view the full documentation in the manpage, man lpass or view it online.
