-Because installing software in Linux ranges from difficult to

-#1 The libraries and tools are very esoteric and useless to most
-consumers. They are no substitute for bona-fide home entertainment
-systems.<P>
-
-#2 The libraries and tools are shared across many applications. Many
-esoteric and useless applications, that is. Changes to the libraries
-must be propagated to the applications without involving a hairball of
-standard lib directories or cp -a'ing the libraries after every
-change.<P>
-
-#3 People hate software that costs money. People hate free software
-that doesn't have support even more. Only people who like compiling
-software instead of retaliating for lack of support are going to bother
-compiling backups.<P>

-Enter the <I>symbolic linking</I> paradigm. The biggest reason users
-can't understand our development tree structure is that Microsoft is
-king and symbolic linking doesn't exist in Windows.<P>
-
-When you symbolically link something, it appears in the directory just
-like the original file would, except it's really an illusion. Changes
-made to the original file appear in every symbolic link to it, as if
-you changed many copies of the file.<P>

-Here's the development tree you need to re-enact on your computer to do
-development:<P>

-./
-./libmpeg3
-./quicktime
-./cinelerra
-./xmovie
-</PRE>
-
-The first step in constructing this development tree is downloading the
-backups. The latest version of the following files must be downloaded
-and decompressed into ./:<P>

-cinelerra.*.tar.bz2

-The CFLAGS environment variable must be set with optimization flags.
-The best optimization flags are<P>

-You compile Cinelerra by running <B>make</B> and <B>make install</B> in

-You compile XMovie by running <B>make</B> and <B>make install</B> in
