Building Scintilla with GTK+ on Linux

On Linux, Scintilla and SciTE have been built with GCC and linked with GTK+ 1.2x. GTK+ 1.0x will not work (and when it did it was very slow). The current make file only supports static - linking between SciTE and Scintilla. The gtk/makefile file is used to build SciTE, it can be - invoked as:

- The SciTEGTK.properties file is better than the SciTEGlobal.properties for use on Linux/GTK+ - as it specifies fonts that are likely to be installed. Under Linux, SciTE reads its - SciTEGlobal.properties file from the user's home directory. + make install
+
+ The make install command searches for Gnome, and if found installs SciTE relative to Gnome + and places SciTE in the Gnome Applications menu. SciTE can be removed with make uninstall + command.
