 ===== Building Dire Wolf from source on Windows (optional) =====
-Excerpt from user guide follows
+You might want to build Dire Wolf yourself to get binaries for the dev branch, which contains support for IL2P. Excerpt from user guide follows.
-The Windows version contains prebuilt executable files so you don’t need to build it from source. If you want to build it from source, here is how to do it.
+NB this does not include Hamlib support - someone needs to work out how to enable Hamlib support for Windows. If you manage it, please come and edit these instructions.
 It is built using Cygwin, which provides a Unix-like development environment. The MinGW compiler is a special version of gcc which generates native code for the Windows operating system.

 Skip sections 5 (Linux) and 6 (Mac OS X) and proceed to section 7 for Basic Operation.
+===== Building Dire Wolf from source on Linux (optional) =====
+See the user guide, but here are some distilled steps for Raspberry Pi OS (tested on 64 bit build)
+NB don't do this on a Pi that's got hamlib or Dire Wolf already installed from distro repositories.
+Get dependencies:
+<code>
+sudo apt update && sudo apt install git cmake libasound2-dev libudev-dev gpsd libgps-dev automake libtool texinfo
+</code>
+(Optional) Build and install hamlib:
+<code>
+cd ~
+git clone https://github.com/Hamlib/Hamlib.git
+cd Hamlib
+./bootstrap
+./configure
+make
+sudo make install
+</code>
+Build and install Dire Wolf (dev branch, 1.7, with IL2P support)
+<code>
+cd ~
+git clone https://www.github.com/wb2osz/direwolf.git
+cd direwolf
+git checkout dev
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake -DUNITTEST=1 ..
+make -j4
+make test
+sudo make install
+sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libhamlib.so.4 /usr/lib/libhamlib.so.4
+</code>
+It works!
+<code>
+$ direwolf -t 0
+Dire Wolf DEVELOPMENT version 1.7 G (Jul 23 2023)
+Includes optional support for:  gpsd hamlib cm108-ptt
+</code>
+NB the "ln -s" above fixes the following:
+direwolf: error while loading shared libraries: libhamlib.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
+The reason is that libhamlib.so is in /usr/local/lib rather than the usual /usr/lib and the particular operating system does not look in the former.
