INSTALLING EMIL V2.1



SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Emil has been tested on AIX3.2.5, HPUX9.01, SunOS4.1.3, Solaris-2.4, Linux
Slackware 3.0 and Ultrix-4.3. 
Emil depends on flex and a decent ANSI compliant C compiler, a recent
version of gcc should always work. If you do not have flex installed on
your system, get it at your nearest GNU archive.



METHOD

Emil uses the GNU autoconf package to simplify system configuration.

1. Type ./configure

2. Modify the user definable part of the top level Makefile.

3. Type make all

4. Get testdir-2.0.4.tar.gz and unpack it in the Emil-2.0.5 source directory.
   It is available at the same place as the Emil distribution.

5. Type make test

   This will exercise the match and conversion routines. If any of them
   fail, this indicates that emil was not properly built and should not
   be used.

6. Type make install

   NOTE. If there exists an emil.cf in the target directory make install
   will not overwrite it. You should check for any new lines in the
   template emil.cf and insert them manually in the target emil.cf.
