Lab 1: Building NLED and GAMMU on Fedora 12

Compiling and Installing NLed.
NLed is a lightweight text editor developed at Seneca. The compile and install process is very straight forward.

To install NLED on your Fedora box follow the following steps:
1. Download nled tarball
$ wget http://cdot.senecac.on.ca/software/nled/nled_2_52_src.tgz

2. Untar
$ tar -xvz nled_2_52_src.tgz

3. Install Development Libraries
$ su -
# yum groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"
# exit

4. Compile and Install NLED
$ make
$ make install

That's it for NLED. Very straight forward!

Compiling Gammu and Wammu GTK from source.
Gammu is a command line GSM phone management tool. Wammu is a front end to gammu and will assist newer users to automatically configure gammu to work with their phone.
