As of Summer 2016, an aptitude/debian package has been made for TSGL for ease of installation. Packages have been made for the following Ubuntu distros:

• Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr)
• Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus)

If you have one of those distros, you can use apt-get to install the TSGL library.

Follow these steps in order to get TSGL on your machine:

1). Type sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tsgl-test/tsgl-dev. When prompted, hit ENTER.

2). Type sudo apt-get update.

3). Type sudo apt-get install tsgl.

TSGL will be installed along with a packaged version of the GLFW library.

The generic Makefile for creating programs (as seen in the tutorials, i.e. Building Programs) is located in the TSGL_GENERIC_MAKEFILE directory under /usr/include/.

Go into that directory, and copy over the Makefile into your project directory in order to start building applications that use TSGL.
