</para>
<screen><userinput>./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static &amp;&amp;
make &amp;&amp;

<para>
If you have <xref linkend="texlive"/> installed and wish to build alternate
formats (PDF and postscript) of the documentation, issue the following
commands:
</para>
<screen><userinput>for DIRNAME in r5rs ref
do make -k -C doc/${DIRNAME} pdf ps
done &amp;&amp;
unset DIRNAME</userinput></screen>
<para>
To test the results, issue: <command>make check</command>.
