How to compile

To install medsquare there are some basic steps:
Step 1: Download source code of medsquare.
Use this command to download from sourceforge with git: git clone git://medsquare.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/medsquare/medsquare

Step 2: Obtain and compile prerequisites
There are automatic scripts to compile medsquare, to execute it: inside the medsquare/ directory there is the script called "build.sh". It will install all prerequisites automatically, downloading and installing the packages in the paste ~/medsquare/ If you prefer a semi automatic script you could use the script "install_dev.sh", localized in medsquare/install/ directory.
This last way allows you to choose which package to install. In case you prefer install manually you must to have installed the next prerequisites, before to compile medsquare.
