Installing Pizza

Prerequisites

For Pizza to work, you need a running mail service (either server, smarthost or local) using "mailx" from nail (provided by, i.e., heirloom-mailx in debian, s-nail in arch).

Installation

The simple way

Install Pizza by running "install.sh" from the base-directory. install.sh takes two arguments: a prefix (the path where to place the executable parts; defaults to "/usr/local/") and an incprefix (the path where to place the message contents/ASCII-images; defaults to "/share"). To set incprefix, passing prefix beforehands is mandatory! You may also pass the environement variables "$PATH" and "$INCPATH", even though given arguments take precedence.

The hard way

If you have $SCRIPTDIR and $SHAREDIR, you may also run the following commands from the src-base:

install -m 755 src/pizza $SCRIPTDIR/pizza
mkdir -p $SHAREDIR/pizza
install -m 644 assets/* $SHAREDIR/pizza/

Afterwards, you have to set the variable $PIZZAINC to $SHAREDIR accordingly.
