The files provided are: -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 1960 Oct 14 13:25 README -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 1144 Oct 14 13:23 makefile -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 2752 Oct 14 13:15 widget.h -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 10946 Oct 14 12:18 widget.ms -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 34817 Oct 14 13:15 widgetlib.c -rw-r--r-- 1 pjs net 3218 Oct 14 13:14 wpage.c 1) widgetlib.c (the actual code) 2) widget.h (the header file which is needed in programs intending to incorporate the library) 3) widget.ms (an explanation of the library and how to use it) 4) wpage.c (a little example of the library in use) 5) makefile (compiles everything together) Compiling things ================ Type 'make' within the directory which contains the files. This creates a local library within the directory, and creates the executable 'wpage' (a demo for you to play with). For general use 'widget.h' must be placed in the standard include directory and the library 'widgetlib.a' must go in a globally accessable place such as /usr/lib. Printing doc ============ 'widget.ms' was created using the ms macros and can printed using something like 'nroff -ms widget.ms' Have fun. Richard C.
