-Installation of the `QuickThreads' threads-building toolkit.
-
-* Notice
-
-QuickThreads -- Threads-building toolkit.

-Permission to use, copy, modify and distribute this software and
-its documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby
-granted, provided that the above copyright notice and this notice
-appear in all copies. This software is provided as a
-proof-of-concept and for demonstration purposes; there is no
-representation about the suitability of this software for any
-purpose.
-
-
-* Configuration
-
-Configure with
-
- ./config *machtype*
-
-where "*machtype*" is one of the supported target machines. As of
-October 1994, the supported machines (targets) are:
-
- axp -- All Digital Equipment Corporation AXP (DEC Alpha)
- processors, compile with GNU CC
- axp-osf1 -- AXP running OSF 1.x
- axp-osf2 -- AXP running OSF 2.x
- hppa -- HP's PA-RISC 1.1 processor
- hppa-cnx-spp -- Convex SPP (PA-RISC 1.1 processor)
- iX86 -- 80386, 80486, and 80586-compatible processors
- See notes below for OS/2.
- iX86-ss -- 'iX86 for assemblers that use slash-slash ('//')
- comments.
- ksr1 -- All KSR processors
- m88k -- All members of the Motorola 88000 family
- mips -- MIPS R2000 and R3000 processors
- mips-irix5 -- Irix 5.xx (use `mips' for Irix 4.xx)
- sparc-os1 -- V8-compliant SPARC processors using compilers
- that prefix labels (e.g. "foo" appears as "_foo")
- Includes Solaris 1 (SunOS 4.X).
- sparc-os2 -- V8-compliant SPARC processors using compilers
- that do not prefix labels. Includes Solaris 2.
- vax -- All VAX processors
-
-In addition, the target `clean' will deconfigure QuickThreads.
-
-Note that a given machine target may not work on all instances of that
-machine because e.g., the assembler syntax varies from machine to
-machine.
-
-Note also that additions to a processor family may require a new
-target. So, for example, the `vax' target might not work for all
-future VAX processors if, say, new VAX processors are introduced and
-they use separate floating-point registers.
-
-For OS/2, change `ranlib' to `ar -s', `configure' to `configure.cmd'
-(or was that `config' to `config.cmd'?), and replace the soft links
-(`ln -s') with plain copies.
-
-
-* Build
-
-To build the QuickThreads library, first configure (see above) then
-type `make libqt.a' in the top-level directory.
-
-To build the demonstration threads package, SimpleThreads, type
-`make libstp.a' in the top-level directory.
-
-To build an executable ``stress-test'' and measurement program, type
-`make run' in the top-level directory. Run `time/raw' to run the
-stress tests.
-
-
-* Installation
-
-Build the QuickThreads library (see above) and then copy `libqt.a' to
-the installation library directory (e.g., /usr/local/lib) and `qt.h'
-and `qtmd.h' to the installation include directory (e.g.,
-/usr/local/include).
