                 LinkChecker installation
                ==========================

Requirements:
You need Python >= 1.5.2
You get Python from http://www.python.org

Installation:
Execute "python setup.py install --create-uninstall", optionally with your 
custom options (see below). 
Now check links with "linkchecker" (Unix users) resp. "linkchecker.bat" 
(Windows users).

Use the "build_ext" command to supply options for SSL compilation support.

Here is the usage guide for setup.py:
Global options:
  --verbose (-v)        run verbosely (default)
  --print-version (-V)  print version
  --quiet (-q)          run quietly (turns verbosity off)
  --dry-run (-n)        don't actually do anything
  --force (-f)          skip dependency checking between files
  --help (-h)           show this help message

Options for 'build_ext' command:
  --build-lib (-b)     directory for compiled extension modules
  --build-temp (-t)    directory for temporary files (build by-products)
  --inplace (-i)       ignore build-lib and put compiled extensions into the
  --include-dirs (-I)  list of directories to search for header files
  --define (-D)        C preprocessor macros to define
  --undef (-U)         C preprocessor macros to undefine
  --libs (-l)          external C libraries to link with
  --library-dirs (-L)  directories to search for external C libraries
  --rpath (-R)         directories to search for shared C libraries at runtime
  --link-objects (-O)  extra explicit link objects to include in the link
  --debug (-g)         compile/link with debugging information

usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
   or: setup.py --help
   or: setup.py --help-commands
   or: setup.py cmd --help

For example your openssl headers are in /usr/local/include/openssl and
the library is in /usr/local/lib:
./setup.py build_ext -I/usr/local/include/openssl -L/usr/local/lib
