install xipmsg on ubuntu

liinux下安装xipmsg，本来很简单的问题，几个命令就能搞定的事情，结果却是稍微的麻烦点。

首先在ubuntu中最简单的方法就是使用apt-get来安装xipmsg

sudo apt-get install xipmsg

另外的一种方法就是直接编译源码来实现，下载地址是http://www.ipmsg.org/index.html.en ，在其中下载相应的文件，ls一

下，没有configure文件，how ？最直接的方法就是直接读取REAME文件，果然在REAME中存在安装的说明。名儒如下：

INSTALL
    (1) Edit Imakefile.
    - Enabe/Disable OS dependent variables (CC, EXTRA_DEFINES, ..)

    (2) In the source directory, run
    # xmkmf -a
    # make
    # make install

    (3) Run xipmsg.

好吧，开始键入这些命令：

xmkmf －a

linux中很正常的error又一次出现，google。

error: X11/Xaw/Cardinals.h: No such file or directory

...

在国外的ubuntu论坛中，找到了下面的解决方法（缺少相应的lib）

I had a similar problem. ./configure isn't really adequate for xspim, so you might be missing some dependencies. I'm not sure if this will completely solve the problem, but it's easy so probably worth a try. This is a list of what I had to install to build xspim:

byacc
flex
bison
libx11-dev
libxaw7-dev

You can use the search function in the synaptic package manager to find everything.

实验果然成功，继续

xmkmf -a

make

make install

注意要想运行xipmsg的话，需要是root用户。

sudo ./xipmsg

linux的Mrs Error可真是无处不再啊，在我认为一切OK的时候，在运行xipmsg时，又一次出现：

Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

再次google之，得到：

Solution 1

If you are running the US-English version of FrameMaker, ignore this message; FrameMaker will work as expected.

Solution 2

Set the LANG environmental variable at a UNIX command prompt for the version of the FrameMaker 5.5.3 product and UNIX shell you are using before you start FrameMaker:

If you are using the US-English version of FrameMaker:

- For a C shell, type:

setenv LANG en_US.iso88591

- For a Bourne or Korn shell, type:

LANG=en_US.iso88591; export LANG

If you are using the French version of FrameMaker:

- For a C shell, type:

setenv LANG fr_FR.iso88591

- For a Bourne or Korn shell, type:

LANG=fr_FR.iso88591; export LANG

If you are using the German version of FrameMaker:

- For a C shell, type:

setenv LANG de_DE.iso88591

- For a Bourne or Korn shell, type:

LANG=de_DE.iso88591; export LANG

NOTE: If you need assistance with setting these variables, please see your UNIX system administrator.

我使用的是e文的，所以将上面的Waning忽略掉，到此安装成功。
