Type ./configure
Type `make'
Type `make install' as a user with the appropriate privileges (e.g., `bin' or perhaps even `root').
Type `cd /usr/include; mkid' to build an ID database covering all of the system header files.
Type `lid FILE', then `gid strtok', then `aid stdout'.
You have just built, installed and used the most common commands of the GNU ID utilities. If you ever need help remembering which system header files contain a particular declaration, or reference a particular symbol, you'll want to keep the ID file you built in /usr/include for later use. If your working directory is elsewhere at the time, simply provide the `-f /usr/include' option to lid (see Reading options).
