OpenBSD

Building

Use GNU's make and the clang compiler to build:

cd kakoune/src
CXX=clang++ gmake 

Installing

After building Kakoune you can install it as root:

su
cd kakoune/src
gmake install

Depenpencies

setsid

For Kakoune's :new command you will need a setsid executable. Unfortunately there is no port available for this tool, but you can paste this script into $HOME/bin/setsid as a substitute:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use POSIX;

setsid;
exec @ARGV;

Make this script executable using chmod +x "$HOME/bin/setsid" and make sure $HOME/bin is included in your $PATH.
