Summary

This PR updates the website documentation to match the fix applied to the main repository README (nprint/nprint#50).

Changes

  • Updated nprint/install.md with proper configure command for macOS that passes argp-standalone include and library paths via CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS
  • Added autoconf, automake, and libtool to the macOS dependency installation instructions (required for building from source)
  • Reorganized installation section to clearly separate Linux and macOS build steps
  • Added instructions for both building from source (git clone) and from release tarballs

Context

This addresses the same issue as nprint/nprint#48 - macOS users were encountering compilation errors because argp.h couldn't be found. The solution is to pass the proper Homebrew paths to the configure script instead of manually editing the Makefile.

Testing

Successfully built and installed nprint on macOS Sequoia (Apple Silicon) using these instructions.

Added proper configure command for macOS that passes the argp-standalone include and library paths. This matches the fix applied to the main repository README.
