----------------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS
------------------------
* >= Perl 5.6

People have reported running aub on Linux, various other flavors of
UN*X, Windows NT, and similar operations systems. aub should run
anywhere Perl does.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Debian GNU/Linux)
------------------------
1) Simply download and install the deb file. It can be downloaded
from the Debian archive with the famous apt-get program or
downloaded directly from the AUB homepage linked at the bottom of
this file.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (OTHER UN*X)
------------------------
1) Make sure aub is executable; copy it to some directory in your
$PATH:
% chmod a+x aub
% cp aub <directory in $PATH>
2) Create an ".aubconf" file in your $HOME directory.
(see aubconf.example or aub docs for details)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (WIN32)
------------------------
1) You might want to open up aub in a text editor and edit lines
near the top. aub's default behavior is very UN*Xy but the
methods for having it run in a much more windows type of mode is
clearly marked in the source. If you want, you should edit aub at
this step paying special attention to the default values for
$AUBHOME, etc).
2) Copy the "aub" file to some directory in your $PATH, make it
executable.
3) Create the $AUBHOME directory (default: ~/aub or c:/aub)
4) Create a "aubconf" file in $AUBHOME.
(see aubconf.example or aub docs for details)
DOCUMENTATION
------------------------
AUB documentation has historically been retrieved by running 'aub -m'
or 'aub -M'. This behavior has been left in tact but it also now
distributed more standard methods.
Documentation included in this release can be found in the following
locations:
* Introducing_AUB - the Introducing AUB document (also retrievable
with aub -M)
* USAGE - command and configuration options (also retrievable with
aub -m)
* aub's manpage (in man, html, and source DocBook sgml format)
* aubconf's manpage (in man, html, and source DocBook sgml format)
