IMPORTANT NOTE:

   TEA can be built in two modes. The default one uses the GtkSourceView and some GNOME-related libs: GnomeVFS and LibGconf (modern versions). You can also build TEA without those libs, but using the pure GTK+2.4 (or higher). In this mode, TEA hasn't dynamic syntax highlighting (so you need to refresh it manually), and hasn't braces highlighting. To use such mode, run the "configure" script with the "--enable-legacy" option. 
   If you want the Aspell support (for spell-cheсking), you need to install the libaspellXX-devel package (where XX is the number of version) before you run ./configure. And what about the version? The modern one - that is the answer.
   To use Enchant (and disable Aspell), configure the source with "--enable-enchant" option.
   Also you need the XOrg or XFree headers. For RPM-based distro please install the package with a name "libx11_6-devel" (the version can be different).

To install TEA:

./configure
or
./configure --enable-legacy

and then:

make
make install

To uninstall:

make uninstall

Notes:

to run autogen-sh you need Autoconf version 2.53 or higher AND automake 1.7 (or 1.4? that's right, I don't remember)
