About

Panorama is an application lanucher written in Qt for the OpenPandora portable gaming platform. The focus lies on creating an extremely portable, modular and extensible system that also is visually appealing and uses little resources. Having intuitive controls and an efficient usage of screen real estate is also a primary goal.

Building the source code

You will need the following tools and resources to compile Panorama:

• A C++ compiler
• Git
• Qt 4.7 or later

Once you have these tools, you should get hold of the latest version of the Panorama source code distribution, which you can do by going to the GitHub repository for Panorama. You'll also need the Pandora libraries that are used for PND software package integration. You can get them using the following commands:

git submodule init
git submodule update

Then, do the following:

• Run qmake for the Qt version you used. If you want to enable OpenGL rendering use qmake CONFIG+=enable_opengl panorama.pro.
• Run gmake (or make). You should now have the panorama executable in the panorama/target directory.
