$ git submodule update
$ jruby bin/redcar install
$ jruby -S rake build

PROBLEMS?

• Irc at #redcar on irc.freenode.net
• Mailing list at http://groups.google.com/group/redcar-editor

TESTS

To run all specs and features:

NB. Features work with Cucumber version 0.4.2, you may have problems with other versions because for the moment we are patching Cucumber dynamically to support dependencies between sets of features.
