	       Tcl Interface to System V IPC Facilities

		      Installation Instructions

1) Get svipc-2.2.tar.gz from http://www.neosoft.com/tcl

2) Get any patches (svipc-2.2-patch?)

3) Unpack it in your Tcl source directory.  I assume that you have
   tcl, and tk in a directory somewhere on the system that looks
   like:

				 tcl
				  |
			      +-------+
			      |       |
			    tcl7.5  tk4.1

   Just untar this package in the same directory:

	cd tcl
	tar xvzf svipc-2.2.tar.gz

4) Type ``./configure'' to run the automatic configuration script.
   You *must* have built tcl with --enable-shared configuration
   option.  If you did not, I suggest that you get svipc-2.1.1 and use
   that package.  Note that this configure script ignores any use of
   the --prefix and related switches since it gets its configuration
   from tclConfig.sh, either in the sister tcl7.5/unix/ directory or
   as specified in the --with-tcl switch.

5) Type ``make install'' to install everything in the same directory
   hierarchy as the Tcl installation.  The shared library and
   generated pkgIndex.tcl files go in $tcl_library/../svipc2.2/.

6) Man pages in SVipc/man provide rudimentary documentation.  I assume
   familiarity with the basic System V IPC facilities.  Read *those*
   man pages first.

7) Directory tests contains some simple test scripts which verify the
   basic functionality.
