This package was debianized by Andreas Franzen <anfra@debian.org>
on Wed Feb 10 15:04:42 CET 1999

I downloaded it from http://stereotaxis.wustl.edu/~jerry/rtl_man.tar.gz.

Each man page was fitted with a GPL copyright notice on behalf of
Jerry Epplin, the original author of these man pages, see below.

Feel free to use them, inserting whatever copyright notices 
are appropriate.
