HOWTO

# gtkmm
# =====
# Slackware 8.0's 'gtkmm' package includes version 1.2.5, 8.1's includes
# 1.2.8  Newer versions of Slackware don't include gtkmm.

# I include the latest 2.6.x and 2.8.x versions below, but keep in mind
# that I only actually use the 2.8.x version

# If you ever want to uninstall gtkmm, or clean up files from an old
# version before installing a new one, skip down to the bottom for
# instructions

# gawk
# sed
# grep
# m4
# perl
# pkg-config
