- This is a prerelease of GNU ptx. With GNU make, GNU awk and GNU C
- compiler, installation should be straightforward. Edit the Makefile
- according to instructions provided in it, then `make' the thing. This
- will produces gptx and ptx, which are two names for the same file. If
- everything goes fine, and if you wish, do `make install' using the
- proper account.
-
- There is some documentation in `gptx.texinfo', but there is no man
- page. Calling the program with an illegal option, such as -h,
- provides an option summary. English not being my native language, the
- documentation style is certainly quite crude. Do not hesitate to
- comment about it, or even better, to ship back to me those parts you
- rewrote.
-
- The code has been successfully installed on Apollo, Sparc, Sun-3, and
- ix386 machines. I would like to improve the portability of GNU ptx,
- as long as the code stays reasonnably readable. The best thing would
- be that *you* provide me with some feedback about it.
