How to install:

If you have Ubuntu, Xubuntu, or Kubuntu installed, from the command-line just run the INSTALL file (either the one in this directory or the other INSTALL file one directory up) to set stuff up: e.g. ./INSTALL. Other distributions and other Xubuntu versions may require a different process. Currently, it must be installed in a set location. Local installation and the ability to choose where to install it are planned (but not implemented).

How to uninstall:

Just run UNINSTALL (from the command-line): e.g. ./UNINSTALL

How to update (I haven't tested the update script in years; so, use caution):

If you wish to update the program, run UPDATE. If you just want to install current dependencies, run DEPEND. However, it should be noted that some additional care may need to be taken in order to update any user settings that were broken by the update (only if new persistent settings have been created, though); to make those settings available, do one of the following:

• If Shule runs, if anything, you probably just need to open it, go to Tools->System->Reset Other (not the above); this will allow any new other additional saved settings that I’ve created to appear and be used (unless they relate to things not covered by Reset Other, which they probably won’t).
• To delete the local user settings, delete the following folder: /home/yourUserName/.local/share/Shule/
• To delete the global user settings, delete the following folder: /opt/share/shule
• Add a file with the name of the setting (which is able to be unpickled), ending with the extension .pkl. Add this file to the parts folder in your settings. The value of the pickled file should be something like None, {}, [], or 0—it really depends on what it is (check the source code of shule.py in the restock_other method to know for sure what it should be; look for d["name_of_my_setting"]=thisIsWhatYouWant).
• To delete the portable settings, delete the contents of (not the folder itself) the following folder: shule/portable_settings

Or you can just uninstall and reinstall the program; i.e.

./UNINSTALL #This will delete the files created by installing (including user settings for all users; it will not delete portable settings. It doesn’t undo the mime-type changes, yet.)
./INSTALL


--------------------------------------
If you want to install Shule manually, see the following (and run the other commands in the INSTALL file, modified where needed—such as the apt-get installation command).


Setting menu shortcuts for all users:

Copy the shortcut so its destination filepath is as follows:
/usr/share/applications/Shule.desktop
