How to Customize splfr and spld

The utilities splfr and spld are implemented as Perl scripts and can be customized in order to adapt to local variations. Do not attempt this unless you know what you are doing. Customization is done by editing their common configuration file spconfig-version. Follow these instructions:

1. Locate the configuration file spconfig-version. It should be located in the same directory as splfr and spld.
2. Make a copy for spconfig-version; let's call it hacked_spld.config. Do not edit the original file.
3. The configuration file contains lines on the form CFLAGS=-g -O2. Edit these according to your needs. Do not add or remove any flags.
4. You may now use the modified spconfig-version together with spld or splfr like this:
   

   % spld [...] --config=/path/to/hacked_spld.config
   

   Replace /path/to with the actual path to the hacked configuration file.
