I have downloaded
woff-code-latest.zip from J. Kew WOFF website
and have unzip it and ... <sigh> I'm locked at this point.

How to compile? I use Linux KDE 4.10 (32bits) and I am still a modest
user (not a power user) under Linux. I can see the 3 C files and the 2
header files from the .zip file....
Do you know the command line instructions to compile 3 C files and 2
headers files into 1 executable in a Linux Terminal?


"Precompiled versions (of sfnt2woff) for Mac OS X and for Windows are
available."

... but none for Linux Ubuntu i686 32bits family ..
