12============
13
14scons has several targets. It is recommended to execute them sequentially.
15The normal install procedure is as follows
16.. code::
17
18   scons
19   scons makedist=1
20   cd asap-4.1.0
21   python setup.py install
22   asap # exit with <Ctrl-D>
23
24Obtaining the data directory
25============================
26
27The data repository can be obtained separately after installing ASAP.
28Before you run asap for the first time simply run::
29
30    asap_update_data
31
32This will install the data repository into the correct location.
33
34Creating a binary distribution
35==============================
36
37after building using 'scons', you can create a compressed tarball of the binaries. This is done via the target 'makedist='. The argument should be an obvious identifier for the system you want to support, e.g. 'sarge' or 'fc5-x86_64'::
38
39    python setup.py bdist_egg
40
41This will create an archive in the subdirectory 'dist' named 'asap-X.Y.Z-py2.Negg', where X,Y,Z are the version numbers e.g 4.1.0.
