NAME
       rheolef-config -- get installation directories

EXAMPLE
       The following command returns the rheolef libraries directory:

	       rheolef-config --libdir

       An environment sanity check writes:

	       rheolef-config --check

DESCRIPTION
       This  command  is usefull when linking executables with rheolef: libraries locations are required by the link editor.  Such directories are
       defined while configuring rheolef, before to compile and install see .  Installing}'.  The rheolef-config command returns these settings.

       Note that rheolef-config could be used in Makefiles for the determination of linker flags.

       Another usefull feature is the --check option.  When rheolef is installed in a user directory, i.e. not as root, the sane run-time environ-
       ment  depends  upon two environment variables. The first one is the PATH: bkindir directory may be present in PATH.  The second environment
       variable is related to shared libraries, and its name is system-dependent, e.g.	LD_LIBRARY_PATH on most platforms and SHLIB_PATH on HP-UX.
       Its content may contains bindir.

	       rheolef-config --shlibpath-var

       Since it is a common mistake to have incorrect values for these variable, for novice users or for adanced ones, especialy when dealing with
       several installed versions, the environment sanity check writes:

	       rheolef-config --check

       If there is mistakes, a hint is suggested to fix it and the return status is 1. Instead, the return status is 0.
