-INSTALL
-=======
-
-Alot depends on development versions of notmuch and urwid.
-Note that due to restrictions on argparse and subprocess,
-you need to run *python v>=2.7*.
-
-urwid
------
-make sure you have
-
- git clone http://github.com/wardi/urwid
- cd urwid
- sudo python setup.py install
-
-It seems you need the python headers for this.
-On debian/ubuntu:
-
- aptitude install python2.7-dev
-
-
-notmuch
--------
-install notmuch *and* python bindings from git:
-
- git clone git://notmuchmail.org/git/notmuch
-
- cd notmuch
- ./configure
- make
- sudo make install
- cd bindings/python
- sudo python setup.py install
-
-
-alot
-----
-get alot and install it from git:
-
- git clone git://github.com/pazz/alot alot
- cd alot
- sudo python setup.py install
-
-That's it, now `alot` should be in your path.
-
-Alot tries to be as unobtrusive as possible, with one exception:
-It forces you to use UTF-8 encoding whereever it can:
-All text parts and headers of outgoing emails are converted to utf-8,
-notmuch tagstrings, edited emails and config files are interpreted as utf-8.
-
-All configs are optional, but if you want to send mails you need to
-specify at least one account section in you config:
-
- [account uoe]
- realname = Your Name
- address = your@address
-
-See USAGE for default keymaps and how to do fancy customization.
