Hi Wade, please _carefully_ read the cm/readme.text file, it tells you what every dependency is and it gives you links to the places for you to get it.
thats doubly important on linux because there are a number of apt-get systems you may need to install to build there, e.g alsa and a few more. This is covered in the section "Building a static JUCE library on Linux" at the end of the read me and includes a link to an explanation of what exactly you will need to install and how to install it.
once you have premake4 installed on your path and have done apt-get on all the linux dependancies you can cd to the cm dir and do
premake4 --help
for a list of build options (also covered in the readme.text file…) and the command
premake4
make
will make the core version of the Grace app -- Common Music in S7/Sndlib -- that will be saved in the executable bin/Grace
Please let me know anything you find unclear in the readme, i really try my hard to make things clear and simple
(and in my book doing...
premake4
make
...is about as simple as it can get for such complicated software ;) )
best, rick

After installing premake and trying "premake premake4" (and later, "premake --premake4," "premake --premake4.lua", etc.) I get the response "No premake script found!" But isn't premake4.lua the script in question? And how to I invoke it? (I've already tried making it executable, and even the cm directory to PATH.)
