Building Oct

1. Obtain a copy of Oct. Currently that means from the git repository  http://common-lisp.net/r/projects/oct/oct.git, but also see the  Oct gitweb for more links. The CVS repository is still available, but it is no longer used.

2. Get a copy of ASDF2, if your lisp doesn't already have it. (The easiest way to get ASDF2 is probably to use  quicklisp.)

3. (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op "oct") will compile up everything.

4. (asdf:oos 'asdf:test-op "oct") will compile and run some simple All tests should pass. You will need a copy of {RT} for this to work. The easiest way to get RT is to use quicklisp.
