**Anyone else**
Install Qt directly from here http://qt-project.org/downloads . Once done export them in you path (replace "_/opt/Qt5.3.1/5.3/gcc_64/bin_" with your correct folder):
export PATH=/opt/Qt5.3.1/5.3/gcc_64/bin/:$PATH

### Compile
Once you installed all dependencies (Qt is installed and in your path) you need to compile and run the application:
```bash
# Get it from GitHub
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term.git
# Build it
cd cool-retro-term
# Compile (Fedora and OpenSUSE user should use qmake-qt5 instead of qmake)
qmake && make
# Have fun!
./cool-retro-term
```
