First, I downloaded the source files for "Reaper v13 Beta 4 Source code"
http://wiki.solidcoin.info/wiki/Reaper.
Then I followed the instructions on the README, and with some help from Google on the finding dependencies and restarting my machine, I have successfully compiled reaper.
~/Downloads/reaperv13beta4_src/build$ cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

Now how the heck do I run the thing? I see that the readme talks about a reaper binary, but I can't find one. I've set up the configuration files, so the last thing should be running reaper.
I think once I get this working on my main box, I will write a brief tutorial on how to get this working for the next guy that comes along as I set up a second machine.
Thanks.
