I did that sort of thing about 3-4 years ago in a rather feeble attempt to build a Livecode
version to run on Linux PPC . . .

Most open source efforts supply a folder with the build files inside it rather
than forcing people down the slightly recherché route of git-hub.

You need to clone the git repository to your machine and have the build
tools setup for your platform.  I'm not sure about the "install" part
though... I've just been running the result directly from where it is built
since I'm repeatedly building different versions.  I only install the
packaged ones I download.

Sometimes I download a folder containing the source code for an
application and cd into it from the Terminal and do a

./compile
make
make install

series of actions

and the code is compiled and installed in my operating system.

How does one download such a folder of an Open Source version of Livecode?
