To compile the dock or any plug-in, you just copy-paste these lines into a terminal (assuming you are in the sources directory of the dock/plug-in) :
autoreconf -isvf && ./configure && make
sudo make install
Note: you have to install the dock before compiling any plug-in.

you can provide directory installation by adding --prefix=/path/of/the/directory after the 'configure'.

If your libcairo is compiled with glitz support (that is, with --enable-glitz option), you can benefit from glitz hardware acceleration in cairo-dock too.
Just add the --enable-glitz option after the 'configure'.

Stable plug-ins can be compile at once, or one by one. Unstable plug-ins have to be compiled one by one.
See the "Applets.stable" file in the "plug-ins" folder for an exhaustive list of stable applets (that are effectively integrated into the official package).

To build the Cairo-Dock documentation, use the generate-doc.sh script in the 'doc' directory.
To build the entire project, use the compile-all.sh script, in the 'cairo-dock' folder. Run it with :
  ./compile-all.sh -acCiut

Thanks for using Cairo-Dock, hope you will enjoy it ! ^_^
