This is an alpha distribution of glib, an editor and librarian for
synthesizer patches by Tim Thompson with modifications by Steve Falco,
Michael Kesti, Alan Bland, and Greg Lee.  It compiles and the editing
and file parts work under Unix (Ultrix).  Midi communications with a
synth are not implemented, however.  Previous versions, including midi
communication, have apparently worked for ibmpc's, Atari st, Apple
Macintosh, and Amiga.  The source for these pc's is included, but I
don't know whether it works with this version.

Sample patch files are distributed separately.

To compile the Unix BSD Ultrix version, first uncomment some lines in the
Makefile (as noted there), depending on which synths you want glib to
handle, then type 'make'.  For other varieties of Unix, remove
'-DULTRIX' or '-DBSD' from CFLAGS in the Makefile, and hope for the
best.  For the various little pc's, consult the information in
the PORTING document.

For instructions for use, see glib.man (troff source in glib.1).
For porting to new synths, see PORTING.
