Hello,

I'm BM. A very nice and polite guy.

Normally I use make install to install stuff from Github. Not sure about how to install when it's a cmake directory. How about some instructions in the readme file for those of us that haven't installed with cmake before : )?

Hi,

At the end of the README.md there are already a few instructions on how to do that. Let me know if you run into trouble!

Well, first the instructions refer to /src/timg. There is no such folder as far as I can see.

Assuming what is meant is /timg/src the sudo make install suggestion from README gives error message:

make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.

Furthermore, not sure about Debian but on Raspberry Pi OS latest version it's also not possible to install with sudo apt install timg.

I like timg a lot but installation is a bit iffy.

One more detail, normally in the readme file the installation instructions come first, users may not find them at the bottom of the page.

Ok, I think I got it to work now. First download all the stuff, then cmake, then make, instructions at the bottom of the README. If you want you can improve the installation experience, but in any case I think I got it to work now. At least the first image displayed correctly : ) Thanks for a cool package.
