  GIFT 0.1.15 README

  IF YOU'RE ALLREADY RUNNING AN INSTALLATION OF A PREVIOUS
  VERSION OF THE GIFT, PLEASE DO READ THE "NEWS" FILE.

  The GIFT is a content based image retrieval system.
  That is, it enables the user to retrieve images from a collection 
  without attaching text-based annotation to each image.

  For a no-problem-few-questions interactive installation (the method
  tested best) that does not use CPAN get gift-prerequisites-0.11.tar.gz 
  and install that. Then type:

  % ./configure  --enable-multithreading
  % make
  % make install


  For a few-questions interactive installation that 
  uses CPAN type (a bit more risky than the previous approach
  not due to CPAN, but more difficult to test).

  % ./configure --enable-interactive --enable-multithreading
  % make
  % make install


  If you ask yourself questions, read :

                     GIFT and the prerequisites, and how to get going.

  Doc/configuring-and-hacking-the-gift.txt 
                   for information about how to add your own plugins 
                   to the GIFT, and how to configure the GIFT by hand.

  More documentation can be obtained by installing
      doxygen 
  before configure-ing and make-ing the GIFT. You will find this doc
  in Doc/autoDoc/HTML.
