Before Building

Before being able to build any of these plugins, you MUST set a new Source Tree for the QSFramework in the XCode Preferences.

This is done by going into the XCode preferences, clicking 'Source Trees' and adding a new one with the following options:

Setting Name: QSFrameworks
Display Name: a suitable name, e.g. Quicksilver Frameworks
Path: /Applications/Quicksilver.app/Contents/Frameworks (or path of Quicksilver.app if different)

For some plugins to compile correctly a source tree must also be set for QS_SOURCE_ROOT that points to the location of the Quicksilver source code you've downloaded onto your local machine.

Setting Name: QS_SOURCE_ROOT Display Name: a suitable name, e.g. Quicksilver source code root Path: /Users/<user>/<path to Quicksilver source code>

See the QSApp.com wiki for more information on Building Quicksilver.
