In Readme.md : change =cling-build to =build/cling-build ? #39

Closed kloimhardt closed 1 year ago

kloimhardt commented 1 year ago

I followed the compiling instructions and got a "hello world" working on my Mac! Hurray!

One thing: I had to type

./bin/configure -Djank_cling_build_dir=build/cling-build

I needed three attempts to figure this out, the info in the Readme led me to
plain ./bin/configure and then ./bin/configure -Djank_cling_build_dir=cling-build.

Maybe it makes sense to clarify this in the Readme for Clojurians (like me) who in the last decade had used make and C++ maybe once and now building Jank with "fingers crossed".

Ah, I can see how the list of scripts was misleading you. I'll clarify that and fix the build dir path, as per your suggestion. Thanks for pushing through it and taking the time to leave feedback! Will close this with the commit, once it comes through. I'm in the middle of some big changes right now, but I'll get this closed this weekend.
