Hello, there!
I tried searching about compiling before begging for help, but it seems the more I read, the less I understand.
I'm not a programmer and I know very little about it (which means nothing), but I need to install a C++ application, and I do realize that demands compiling the files, but I really have no idea of how. I do have the developer tools installed, from what I gathered I'll need xcode?
I downloaded the software (http://sourceforge.net/projects/reclink/), which got me a folder called src, which contains more folders - one in particular named Build as a makefile, a document with a long code.
Where do I go from there? Can someone please make a step by step for dummies that I can follow?
I swear, afterwards I'll study some programming.. I just need this to work, otherwise I'll have to install Windows and my Macbook loading Windows is my worse nightmare.
Thank you! And I'm truly sorry if my question seems stupid, but I'm beyond lost.
