Environment variables used when compiling from CVS

These are the variables that are used in the compilation tips at CompileFromCVS.

LYXDEVEL	All releases of lyx source code is checked out under this directory
LYXTAG	Name of the tag that will be used
LYXPREFIX	Installation directory
LYXFRONTEND	Either qt or xforms depending on the frontend to use

This example will check out the branch $LYXTAG to $LYXDEVEL/$LYXTAG.

The code for the qt- and xforms- frontends will be built in subdirectories of this catalog, i.e. in $LYXDEVEL/$LYXTAG/build-qt and $LYXDEVEL/$LYXTAG/build-xform

Frontend	Code
Qt	set LYXFRONTEND=qt;
Xforms	set LYXFRONTEND=xforms;

This code sets the variables:

set LYXDEVEL=/space/lyx-devel;	Set location of workdirectory
set LYXTAG=BRANCH_1_3_X;	Use branch 1.3.x
set LYXPREFIX=/pkg/mdhacks/pkg/lyx/devel/$LYXTAG-$LYXFRONTEND;	Set target directory for installtion
