Compile offline / through proxy support #665

Open zackteo opened 1 year ago

zackteo commented 1 year ago

Hello, have tried to compile vterm in my work environment at various junctures but unfortunately all my attempts have been to no avail. So I thought it is a worth a shot to try asking here.

The problem I face is due to the following: https://github.com/akermu/emacs-libvterm/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L74-L80

My machine is only able to access the internet behind a proxy and I am unable to fulfill Performing download step (git clone) for 'libvterm' as this access is blocked by the proxy.

I am able to download the libvterm manually but CMakeLists.txt forces the download step, is there a way to overcome this?

(For added context, I also have no access to homebrew)

Okay! I managed to resolve it
