- The ultimate mailing kit -- Assumes you own cshar (written by Rich Salz)
-
- Please read all the directions below before you proceed any further, and
- then follow them carefully.
-
- After you have unpacked your kit, you should have all the files listed
- in MANIFEST.
-
- In order to use kit, you need to install CSHAR in your PATH (programs
- needed are shar, makekit and unshar). Compress must be available. If you
- miss one of those, send me a mail: ram@educ.emse.fr (Raphael Manfredi).
-
- Moreover, hexdecode, hexencode, atob and btoa must be installed.
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- 1) Run Configure. This will figure out various things about your
- system. After it has been completed, it will produce config.h and
- config.sh.
-
- You might have to trim # comments from the front of Configure if your
- shell doesn't handle them, but any other comments will be taken care of.
-
- 2) Run make.
-
- 3) If make succeeded, you may wish to do make install. Be sure your
- rights are correct (if you install manual pages, you may need
- super-user privileges).
-
- 4) Read the manual entries before running.
-
- 5) IMPORTANT! Communicate any problem and suggested patches to
- me, ram@educ.emse.fr (Raphael Manfredi), so we can keep this
- distribution in sync. If you have a problem, there will be someone
- who might have had it or will have it too.
-
- If possible, send me patches such that the patch programm will
- apply them. Context diffs are the best, then normal diffs. Do not
- send ed scripts: I have probably changed my copy since the version
- you got.
-
- 6) After everything is installed, you can do "make clobber". This will
- clean up everything and let you re-distribute this kit, without
- carrying useless files. You should keep this distribution intact, so
- that future patches will be applyable.
-
- 7) I have an automatic patch sender. Send me a mail of the following
- form:
-
- Subject: Command
- @SH mailhelp PATH
-
- and you will get instructions about how to use it. PATH stands for
- YOUR e-mail address, either in INTERNET form or in bang notation.
