Makefile install

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hello,
please would you consider adding support to install the skipfish with "make
install" ?

Attached is the patch used to add "make install" to the skipfish package
for Fedora

Best regards
Michal Ambroz

It's already on the TODO list in the documentation. This patch is generally OK 
for a 
distro packaging, but prevents the tool to be used *without* having to do 'make 
install' (as it overrides default paths), which is probably not desirable.

Would this not be worth adding something like a configure file to this? Meaning 
that 
it can be built either way?

Jeez - just make a exe for windows rather than require me to download C etc and 
do the make stuff.
I'm a simple web programmer who works mainly in php mysql js etc and want 
something that I dont have to 'make' - that just works.
Go on -  make it easy for us. I dare you.

Dammit, why do the computer geeks make everything so hard. I downloaded it, 
read all the instructions, and no way in hell that I could get it to work.

So I found out that skipfish is available in Ubuntu Software Center, so I 
installed it, and still I can't get it to work.

I keep getting a message:
bash: ./skipfish: No such file or directory

Unlike the previous user, I can even go without .exe file, I can work within 
Ubuntu, but at least make it so I don't have to have a phd in programming just 
to make it work.
