General 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  If you can, you should use precompiled packages for your distribution.
  But if you cannot use them, or they are not available, please read
  this informations before compiling.
  After your binary is successfuly compiled, you need to copy bin/ folder
  from git to specific directory by your system you compiled for.
  On Linux, you can easily do it by running make install.
  If you are unsure where is the right place, you can check it directly from
  QupZilla by clicking from Help Menu to Informations about program, then in 
  Path section.
  
  You may want to build QupZilla with debugging symbols (for generating
  backtrace of crash) as easily as adding one line to src/src.pro:
               
               CONFIG += debug
               
  QupZilla requires Qt (>=4.7.0) and QtWebKit (at least version included in Qt 4.7)

Building plugins 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  To build plugins, it is neccessary to build QupZilla as static library first.
  You will do this by running this command
              
               qmake CONFIG+=build_plugins
               
  and then build the whole project.

Microsoft Windows
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  You need Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2008 or higher and Qt Libraries 4.7.0
  or higher in order to build QupZilla.
  Building with Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 is possible only with Qt 4.8.0
  and higher. If you try to compile with Qt 4.7, you will get random crashes when
  running QupZilla.
  Building with MingW is perhaps possible too, but MingW QtWebKit crashes with 
  every Flash, so MingW is not officially supported.
  If you don't meet this, please use precompiled version, which is also in smart 
  windows installer.
 
Linux / Unix
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  There is no extra dependency, you only need Qt tools.
 
OS/2
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  I cannot provide support for QupZilla on OS/2 as I don't have access to 
  machine with OS/2, but it is possible to get QupZilla working there.
  
FreeBSD
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  You may need to set few sysctls to get QupZilla running with raster graphics system.
  
  For more informations, please see FAQ.


Available Defines
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  You can set define directly in project file (src/src.pro)
  or set environment variable by
  
    $ export NAME="value"

 General:
   PORTABLE_BUILD         QupZilla won't write any data outside of path of exection.
                          It will also disable plugins by default.
                          (disabled by default)
                          
                          example:
                          $ export PORTABLE_BUILD="true"
                          
                          
   USE_WEBGL              Enable WebGL. You need to build QupZilla with WebKit built
                          with WebGL support, otherwise you won't be able to compile
                          without errors.
                          (disabled by default)
                          
                          example:
                          $ export USE_WEBGL="true"

   NONBLOCK_JS_DIALOGS    Enable non-blocking JavaScript dialogs from alert() prompt()
                          and confirm() functions. They are shown inside page and are not 
                          blocking application window.
                          However, due to synchronous API, there is a possible crash when 
                          closing browser windows with opened dialogs.
                          If you can take this risk and/or make sure you aren't closing browser
                          with opened dialogs, you may enable this option.
                          These dialogs are much more beautiful than normal QDialogs.
                          (disabled by default)
                          
                          example:
                          $ export NONBLOCK_JS_DIALOGS="true"                          
                          
                       
 Windows specific defines:
 
     W7API                Enable Windows 7 API support
                          Requires linking against libraries from Microsoft Visual C++
                          Compiler 2010
                          (enabled by default)
     
     W7TASKBAR            Enable Windows 7 Taskbar support
                          Requires linking against libraries from Microsoft Visual C++
                          Compiler 2010
                          May cause crash when downloading files on some systems.
                          (disabled by default)

 
 Linux / Unix specific defines:
 
     KDE                  For now, it just use better oxygen icons in Preferences.
                          Nepomuk integration is planned, and it will be enabled with
                          this define also.
                          
                          example:
                          $ export KDE="true"
 
     NO_SYSTEM_DATAPATH   By default, QupZilla is using /usr/share/qupzilla/ path
                          for storing themes, translations and plugins.
                          By setting this define, QupZilla will use path of execution.
                          (disabled by default)
                          
                          example:
                          $ export NO_SYSTEM_DATAPATH="true"
                          
     QUPZILLA_PREFIX      You can define different prefix. Prefix must contain ending slash.
                          (default prefix is "/usr/")
                          QupZilla binary will then be moved to PREFIX/bin/, use
                          PREFIX/share/qupzilla/ as datadir, PREFIX/share/applications for
                          desktop launcher and PREFIX/share/pixmaps for icon.
                          
                          example:
                          $ export QUPZILLA_PREFIX="/usr/"
