The source code for TorK is available for download from the project's page on sourceforge.net. 

You can download the Tork source code here.  

 To install the source code package:

Once you've downloaded the package, perform the following commands at the command line:

1. cd /name/of/directory/where/you/saved/the/package 
2. tar jxvf tork-0.xx.bz2
3. cd tork-0.xx 
4. ./configure
5. make
6. su -c 'make install'

Just to be clear, 'xx' above should be replaced with the version number on the source package you've downloaded.

 If you are relatively new at this sort of thing:

To compile TorK you will need to have a number of specific packages installed. The
actual name of these packages will vary according to your distribution. These packages
will not only enable you to compile TorK but pretty much any GNU/Linux application
from source.

If you have the disk space, I recommend just installing every package that has either
'lib' or 'dev' in the title. This will save you no end of bother now and in the future.

If you want to be selective, the list below provides guidance on the keywords to search
for on your installation CD or vendor package repository. The list below is an absolute
minimum. Your vendor may use the term 'devel' or even 'lib' instead of 'dev' in the list
below.

• gcc (c compiler)
• glibc-dev
• gcc-c++ (c++ compiler)
• libstdc++-dev (c++ standard library)
• make (compilation manager)
• automake, autoconf (compilation toolchain)
• libgtk+-dev, libglib-dev  (gnome libraries)
• libgr-dev, libungif-dev, libjpeg-dev, libpng-dev, libtiff-dev, libxpm-dev (image libraries)
• XFree86-dev (necessary for graphics programs)
• zlib-dev (compression)
• libqt or libqt-dev or qt-dev (QT development libraries)
• openssl
• Any package with kde and dev in the title.
• Any package with kde and lib in the title.
