h1. Install\015\012\015\012[[subtle]] has the following dependencies:\015\012\015\012# "Ruby":http://www.ruby-lang.org (>=1.8)\015\012# "Rake":http://rake.rubyforge.org (>=0.8)\015\012# "X11":http://xorg.freedesktop.org (>=6.8.2)\015\012\015\012Currently there is no stable release of subtle available. If you like you can clone the "Mercurial":http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/ repository and install the developer version as followed:\015\012\015\012# hg clone http://hg.scrapping.cc/subtle\015\012# cd subtle\015\012# rake [options]\015\012# rake install\015\012\015\012The installer will copy the files to following ("XDG":http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html) default path:\015\012\015\012# Binaries   -> _/usr/bin_\015\012# Configs    -> _/etc/xdg/subtle_\015\012# Sublets    -> _/usr/share/subtle_\015\012# Extension  -> _(Ruby Dir)/subtle_\015\012\015\012The path can be easily changed (see: rake help) and are printed after config has finished.\015\012\011\015\012On start subtle will check if a config file and sublets are available in the typical XDG path and fall back to the systemwide files. (see: _$XDG_DATA_HOME_, _$XDG_CONFIG_HOME_)\015\012\015\012Per default [[subtle]] will be installed with @/usr/local@ as prefix. This can be easily changed. (see: rake help)\015\012\015\012Therefore subtle will load the systemwide config and every sublets that is in the [[sublets]] path. (default: /usr/local/share/subtle/sublets)\015\012\015\012That may not be suitable for every user, so just create @~/.subtle@ and copy the latest config and the desired sublets into it.\015\012\015\012Always compare your existing config with the one of the repository to get the latest options.
