   26 INSTALLATION
   27 
   28   On most systems, running
   29 
   30 > make install 
   31 
   32 from this directory should do the job. You will need root privileges
   33 for that. For an installation in your home directory (into $HOME/bin),
   34 run
   35 
   36 > make install-home
   37 
   38   This perl script won't work unless you have perl >= 5.8 installed,
   39 latex (including dvips), ghostscript and transfig.  To make full use
   40 of the script, it would be wise also to have gv and a full tetex or
   41 texlive distribution.
   42 
   43 Of course, there
   44 
   45 TESTS AND EXAMPLES
   46 
   47   The examples/ subdirectory contains a few examples. Look at the .fig
   48 files and compare that with the result given by running
   49 
   50 > fig2ps examples/*.fig
   51 
   52   You can also try out various command-line options.
