NAME

       caca-config - script to get information about the installed version of libcaca

SYNOPSIS

       caca-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs ] [ --cflags ]

DESCRIPTION

       caca-config  is  a  tool  that  is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker
       flags that should be used to compile and link progams, libraries,  and  plugins  that  use
       libcaca.

       The  use  of  caca-config  is  deprecated. The more generic tool pkg-config should be used
       instead.

OPTIONS

       --cflags
              Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program  or  library  that
              uses libcaca.

       --exec-prefix=DIR
              If  specified,  use  DIR  instead  of the installation exec prefix that libcaca was
              build with when computing the output for the --cflags  and  --libs  options.   This
              option must be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options.

       --libs Print  the  linker  flags that are necessary to link a program or library that uses
              libcaca.

       --prefix=DIR
              If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that libcaca was  built
              with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options.  This option is
              also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified.  This option must
              be specified before any of the --cflags and --libs options.

       --version
              Prints the currently installed version of libcaca on standard output.

EXAMPLES

       gcc -o main.o $(caca-config --cflags) -c main.c
              is  how  you  might  use  caca-config  to compile a C source file for an executable
              program.

       gcc -o my_app $(caca-config --libs) main.o util.o
              is how you might use caca-config  to  link  compiled  objects  into  an  executable
              program.
