97 The example <parameter>--enable-readline=yes</parameter> parameter
98 enables linking the XFS programs with the

100 to allow editing interactive commands.</para>

102 <para><parameter>OPTIMIZER="..."</parameter>: Adding this parameter to

104 default optimization settings.</para>

106 <para><command>make install-dev</command>: This command installs
107 static XFS libraries, their headers and the corresponding documentation.
108 Currently, <ulink url="ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/">DMAPI</ulink>
