============================== FILES ==============================

The following files should be present when you unpack this code.

HOWTOGET: The URL to get another copy of the program (or executables
for Mac OS9, win32, and eventually Linux).

INSTALLATION: Instructions on compiling  and installing the code.  The
instructions are  necessarily vague  because almost any  computer with
any operating system could contain these programs.

-----

LEGALITIES: Describes the legalities of  use of the code.  Briefly: We
place  our  efforts  in  the  public  domain, but  much  of  the  code
originates from ACM publications.   ACM retains copyright to this code
but  allows  the  use  in  any computer  for  any  purpose.   However,
distribution for commercial gain  requires permission from the ACM and
perhaps payment.
