In brief, the term position independent code (PIC) refers to the generated machine code which is memory address agnostic, i.e. does not make any assumptions about where it was loaded into RAM. Only position independent code is supposed to be included into shared objects (SO) as they should have an ability to dynamically change their location in RAM.
Add make target to the GNUmakefile to install the shared library for system wide
usage in to the following folders:
inlude/libstemmer.h --> /usr/include/libstemmer.h
libstemmer.so --> /usr/lib/libstemmer.so
This allow to compile applications using libstemmer with the command
gcc -lstemmer file.c
file.c should use the include in the following format:
#include <libstemmer.h>

@Sufrostico in #34 you say mitya57's patch is better than yours - do you want to abandon this PR? |

Yes, I'll take a look into @mitya57 patch and try to merge it with snowball last version and PR again. Thanks for the attention to this PR. |

OK, closing then. |

Add GNUmakefile targets to generate, install and purge a libstemmer.so shared library intended to be dynamically linked.
This should facilitate the implementation of wrapper libraries and the integration of this software with other applications.
