- In this case, go to `# Installing`.)

-Compiling CATSFC is best done on Linux. Make sure you have access to a Linux
-system to perform these steps.
-
-## The DS2 SDK
-To compile CATSFC, you need to have the Supercard team's DS2 SDK.
-The Makefile expects it at `/opt/ds2sdk`, but you can move it anywhere,
-provided that you update the Makefile's `DS2SDKPATH` variable to point to it.
-
-For best results, download version 0.13 of the DS2 SDK, which will have the
-MIPS compiler (`gcc`), extract it to `/opt/ds2sdk`, follow the instructions,
-then download version 1.2 of the DS2 SDK and extract its files into
-`opt/ds2sdk`, overwriting version 0.13.
-
-Additionally, you will need to add the updated `zlib`, DMA
-(Direct Memory Access) and filesystem access routines provided by BassAceGold
-and recompile `libds2a.a`. To do this:
-
-> sudo rm -r /opt/ds2sdk/libsrc/{console,core,fs,key,zlib,Makefile} /opt/ds2sdk/include
-> sudo cp -r sdk-modifications/{libsrc,include} /opt/ds2sdk
-> sudo chmod -R 600 /opt/ds2sdk/{libsrc,include}
-> sudo chmod -R a+rX /opt/ds2sdk/{libsrc,include}
-> cd /opt/ds2sdk/libsrc
-> sudo rm libds2a.a ../lib/libds2a.a
-> sudo make

-## The MIPS compiler (`gcc`)
-You also need the MIPS compiler from the DS2 SDK.
-The Makefile expects it at `/opt/mipsel-4.1.2-nopic`, but you can move it
-anywhere, provided that you update the Makefile's `CROSS` variable to point to
-it.
-
-## Making the plugin
-To make the plugin, `catsfc.plg`, use the `cd` command to change to the
-directory containing your copy of the CATSFC source, then type
-`make clean; make`. `catsfc.plg` should appear in the same directory.
-
# Installing
-To install the plugin to your storage card after compiling it, copy
-`catsfc.plg`, `catsfc.ini` and `catsfc.bmp` to the card's `_dstwoplug`
-directory. Then, copy the source directory's CATSFC subdirectory to the
-root of the card.
