= Instalation with RubyGems

1. Download and install RubyGems: 

  http://rubygems.rubyforge.org

2. Install the distribution:

  gem install glue

  When asked about the dependencies to include, only accept
  the dependencies for the RDBMS backends you are planning
  to use.

3. Set environment variable (required to load RubyGems):

  export RUBYOPT=-rubygems

  You can add this in you .bashrc in Unix.

  Alternatively you can run your applications with the -rubygem 
  option:

  ruby -rubygem xxx.rb

= Installation without RubyGems using script.

Installation without RubyGems is *strongly* discouraged.
However, as Glue is all about freedom and possibilities,
a standard installation script is provided.

1. Switch to an administrator account 

  For example in Unix:

  $ su -

2. Run the installation script.

  $ ruby install.rb

This installation script also installs some vendor libraries
that you possibly have allready installed. Use with caution.

= Manual installation.

Uncompress your distribution (Unix example):

$ cd my_dir
$ tar xvfz glue-x.x.x.tar.gz

Put the libray dir in the Ruby path (Unix example):

$ export RUBYOPT='-I path/to/glue/lib'
