Use a SVN client to get the most updated sources for Babel Development code for 2.0 version, just run:

svn co https://babel.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/babel babel

I am a little embarrassed but compile without the configure file - is where I am weak.  I have not raw compiled in some years ever since working with embedded os/9  in the plastics industry.  I can work with packages that require

./configure
make install

I would be grateful for any help.  I would like to contribute to this project maybe on technical documentation.

Thanks!!!

Hi

You're missing the "make" step

./configure (if everything goes smoothly), make, and make install

The documentation of Babel 2.0 we're working on it, you can reach here http://www.openideas.info/wiki/index.php?title=Babel2:Documentation what we've done so far.

We'd love if you help us out with the documentation, since it's one of the most important parts of a project and we don't have so many people working on it.

Cheers in advance

Manuel.

Great - once it get it installed and working with it - I want to procude a manual that starts from scratch.  

But for now when I use nil's instruction there is no configure file only a configure.in and a make.am.  This is where I am hung.

Have I overlooked something

Thanks

True
Since you got the code from the svn, you have to generate the configure file, then run:

sh autogen.sh

You'll generate the configure and then follow the steps we wrote above
Good luck!
