- The dbz package was "liberated" from C News.
- It is included with the GNU libio because it provides
- a fairly good work-out for a stdio implementation.
- The Makefile.in, configure.in, and stdio.h have been
- set up to test libio.
-
- ------
-
- This is the new, improved, lemon-freshened :-) dbz.
-
- Just "make" will get you dbz.o and the dbz program. "make r" runs an
- extensive set of regression tests; most of the mysterious oddments lying
- around here are to do with that. "make rclean" cleans up after "make r".
-
- You probably want to inspect the #ifdef list early in dbz.c before
- compiling, although the defaults should work all right on most systems.
-
- If you are not building this as part of C News, you will need to change
- the -I option in FLAGS in the Makefile to "-I.", and delete the DBMLIBS
- and RFC lines entirely. That will break some of the regression tests;
- at some point I'll fix this.
-
- If you are using this independently from C News, you probably still want
- to look through ../notebook/problems, as some of the portability problems
- described in there can affect dbz.
