 Installation:
If you want to compile and install correctly the application from the sources tarball you should follow this simple steps:
1- decompress a tarball :
if you have downloaded a format .tar.gz enter this: tar xvfz kbilliards-0.x.tar.gz
if you have downloaded a format .tar.bz2 enter this: bunzip2 kbilliards-0.x.tar.bz2 ; tar xvf kbilliards-0.x.tar
2- compile :
go into directory of kbilliards
do this: ./configure
or: ./configure --prefix= here directory path of your KDE3
if all is goes ok ,now you can compile it, enter: make
3- install :
now you must become user root with the command "su" then enter: make install
 Note:
The program is released with all source code, it is under the terms of General Public License GNU read the file COPYING into the tarball; I have used KDevelop, Integrated Development Environment, that can be found at www.kdevelop.org the graphical desktop environment KDE for Linux / Unix can be obtained at www.kde.org the libray QT can be found at www.trolltech.com .
However if you have a recent linux copy, you should have KDE 3.x with QT3 .x
