  # the X11 development libs are needed; in case they are not available use something like:
  wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/xds-viewer/xds-viewer-0.6.tar.gz
# yum install libX11-devel libXext-devel

  # PATH=<path to cmake bin directory>:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.0/bin:$PATH
sh compile.sh # this gives the binary in the build/bin directory
