- You've probably installed it without reading the READ_ME file. It is
- distributed with #define DEBUG set to 1. So you can compile it and
- test it a little before install it on your system. When you are ready
- to install it "for real" remove the #define DEBUG, recompile, and
- install.

- Two other things: the Makefile needs to have a "-cckr" added to the
- CFLAGS, I missed that. Also, the path is set to /usr/local/bin, so
- you might want to change that as well.
