5--- What is RoarAudio?:
6
7RoarAudio is a cross-platform sound system for both, home and professional use.
8It can be used to mix audio for output on a single-stream soundcard or to play
9audio over the network.
10

14--- Build:
15
16-- Build requirements:
17
18A POSIX system or win32.
19
20You should install libesd and libao and maybe some codecs.
21For Debian you may use this command:
22 $ apt-get install build-essential libdnet-dev libesd0-dev libao-dev libvorbis-dev libspeex-dev libshout3-dev liboggz1-dev libslp-dev libx11-dev
23
24Note that in case you want to use any emulation you need to install the corresponding
25sound system on the build system as we are using headers and other files from those
26sound systems to be most compatible. You can safely uninstall them after building
27RoarAudio has been completed.
28
29The following binarys are suggested to be installed, too:
30 gnupg, openssh-client, socat, wget
31
32Also you maybe want to install µRoar and µRoarD (on debian libmuroar* and muroard).
33
34-- How to build:
35
36 $ ./configure
37 $ make
38
39In order to build win32 binarys on UNIX or GNU/Linux:
40 $ CC=...mingw32...gcc ./configure --target-win32
41 $ make
42
43In order to build win32 binarys on Win32 with MinGW/MSYS:
44 $ bash configure
45 $ make
46
47Building on OpenVMS:
48 Ask on the RoarAudio Mailinglist.
49
50--- Plugins:
51
52Plugins should be build automaticly since 0.2rc2.
53
54--- Writing software for RoarAudio:
55
56See manpages: libroar(7) and roartut(7).
57You also should read the example code in roarclients/*.c
