Compilation and Installation:
-----------------------------

   The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation.  It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory in the source
tree.

   Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that you can run
in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
(useful mainly for debugging `configure').

   If you need to do unusual things to compile, please try to figure
out how `configure' could check whether to do them, and mail diffs or
instructions to the maintainer of this package (see the file AUTHORS
in the top level directory of the distribution for the email address)
so they can be considered for the next release.  If at some point
`config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove
or edit it.

   The file `configure.in' is used to create `configure' by a program
called `autoconf'.  You only need `configure.in' if you want to change
it or regenerate `configure' using a newer version of `autoconf'.

The simplest way to compile this package is:

  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and
     type `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If
     you're using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need
     to type `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to
     execute `configure' itself.

     Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
     messages telling which features it is checking for.

  2. Type `make' to compile the package.

  3. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files
     and documentation.

  4. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
     source code directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
     files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package
     for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.


Compilers and Options:
----------------------

   Some systems require unusual options for compilation or linking
that the `configure' script does not know about.  You can give
`configure' initial values for variables by setting them in the
environment.  Using a Bourne-compatible shell, you can do that on the
command line like this: CC=c89 CFLAGS=-O2 LIBS=-lposix ./configure

Or on systems that have the `env' program, you can do it like this:
     env CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-s ./configure
