@ -46,6 +46,17 @@ Urchin depends on the following programs.
All of the above programs are usually included on base BSD installations.
On GNU systems it should be sufficient to install the busybox package.
Urchin uses sort to format its output. GNU sort (as of GNU coreutils version
8.24) lacks the ability to sort in lexicographic order, and this feature is
necessary for the output to look right. If your version of sort lacks this
feature, Urchin will try to use one of the following tools for sorting.
If no acceptable sorting program is available, Urchin will print a warning
and use the incomplete sort that is installed on your system. This is not a
big deal; if your test files all start with alphanumeric letters, the output
should look fine.
## Install
Urchin is contained in a single file, so you can install it by copying it to a
directory in your `PATH`. For example, you can run the following as root.
