=== Unix === 

The following instructions are dedicated to users of Unix-like systems (Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, etc.)

Download the latest source code release and issue following commands:

{{{
./configure
make
make install
}}}

Note, if you are building GEOS downloaded from SVN, you need to have [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_build_system autotools] available in your system, so you can first generate ''./configure'' script using the following command:
{{{
./autogen.sh
}}}
Then, you will be able to execute''./configure'' and later ''make'' and ''make install'' commands

For more details about configuration options run:
{{{
./configure --help
}}}
