$ tar -xvzf vicare-n.n.n.tar.gz $ cd vicare-n.n.n $ ./configure [--prefix=path] [CFLAGS=-I/dir] [LDFLAGS=-L/dir] $ make $ make install

After installation, under the directory
$libexecdir/vicare-scheme, scripts with names like
compile-all.sps can be executed to precompile the installed
libraries; for example:
$ sudo vicare --compile-dependencies \ /usr/local/libexec/vicare-scheme/compile-all.sps
To uninstall Vicare Scheme, use the following steps:
$ cd path/to/vicare-n.n.n $ make uninstall
