What is ./bootstrap ?? in linux
by penguine_lq from LinuxQuestions.org on (#51DJS)
Hello guys,
i have recently tried to install a set of icons which requires clang (a compiler) along with icons-in-terminal (which is icon printing utility) from Github. but I never really understood the instruction they provide. here is the link of github projects:
https://github.com/sebastiencs/ls-icons
dependency:
clang
https://github.com/sebastiencs/icons...l#integrations
Can you please tell me what is the instruction dictates??
once installed you can run these instruction :: (but what does it mean???)
$ ./bootstrap
$ export CFLAGS=-DNO_TRUE_COLOURS=1 # Execute this line _only_ if your terminal doesn't support true colours
$ export CC=clang CXX=clang++
$ ./configure --prefix=/opt/coreutils
$ make
$ make install
$ /opt/coreutils/bin/ls
