Installation Names
==================
-By default, `make install' installs the package's commands under
-`/usr/local/bin', include files under `/usr/local/include', etc. You
-can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
-`configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX'.
+By default, `make install' will install the package's files in
+`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/man', etc. You can specify an
+installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving `configure' the
+option `--prefix=PREFIX'.
You can specify separate installation prefixes for
architecture-specific files and architecture-independent files. If you
-pass the option `--exec-prefix=PREFIX' to `configure', the package uses
-PREFIX as the prefix for installing programs and libraries.
-Documentation and other data files still use the regular prefix.

In addition, if you use an unusual directory layout you can give
options like `--bindir=DIR' to specify different values for particular
need to know the machine type.
If you are _building_ compiler tools for cross-compiling, you should

If you want to _use_ a cross compiler, that generates code for a

-causes the specified `gcc' to be used as the C compiler (unless it is
-overridden in the site shell script). Here is a another example:
-
- /bin/bash ./configure CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash
-
-Here the `CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash' operand causes subsequent
-configuration-related scripts to be executed by `/bin/bash'.
