Get DrawPile

DrawPile is available for download from our SourceForge project page. Currently, precompiled binaries are not provided for the latest version.

If you are a developer, or just adventurous, you can get the very latest version using Subversion. Check out a working copy with the following command:

svn co https://drawpile.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/drawpile/trunk/ drawpile

You can then later keep it up to date with the command svn update. Alternatively, you can use a graphical SVN client such as TortoiseSVN and browse the repository visually.

Compile DrawPile

To compile, you must have the following:

Once you have all the prerequisites, unpack DrawPile and go to the newly created directory. Then create a build directory and compile:

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

You can then try out Drawpile with the command ../bin/drawpile.
