Installing lpdoc

lpdoc can be obtained as either a source or binary distribution. The source distribution contains all the source code and libraries and can be compiled on a supported Prolog system ( lpdoc is developed using CIAO Prolog). The latest publically distributed version of lpdoc is available from http:://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Software. A newer version in Beta test is often available in http:://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Software/Beta.

Installing the source distribution

Installing the binary distribution

If you do not have one of the Prolog systems recommended for compiling lpdoc (or you simply prefer to use a pre-compiled version) you can still install the binary distribution as follows:

Other software packages required

The basic functionality of lpdoc (generating the .texi, the .manl, the index files) is essentially self contained. However, using the full capabilities of lpdoc requires having several other software packages installed. FOrtunately, all of these packages are public domain software and they will normally be already installed in, e.g., a standard Linux distribution.
