Installing on Windows NT/95

If you have questions about the installation procedure on WIN32,
please contact Scott.


The system requires that you have headers and libraries for the WIN32
API and ANSI-C.  If you have a working bash shell then you should run
the normal Unix ./configure shell script; otherwise, you can follow
these instructions and run the configure.bat batch file.

   Quick installation instructions:

        configure
        make
        make install

   Detailled installation instructions:

  1. Install `gcc'.  The library requires gcc version
     2.7.0 or later.

  2. Configure the package for your system.  Review the Makefile.sed.nt
     files which is used to process Makefile.in to create a working
     Makefiles.  They exist in the directories: ./ , ./checks , ./src
     Of interest are:

        'libdir'                where to install the library file
        'includedir'            where to install the headers
        'install'               make rules to install libobjects

  3. Run 'configure.bat' to create the Makefiles, and the header configuration
     file 'src/include/config.h'

  4. Type `make' to compile the package.  If you want, you can override
     the `make' variables `CFLAGS' like this:
                make CFLAGS=-O2

  5. Type `make install' to install the library, data files, header
     files, and documentation.

  6. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
     source directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
     Makefile(s), and `config.status' (all the files that `configure'
     created), type `make distclean'.
