INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
This program works on UNIX-type systems. It likely will not work with
any version of Perl before 5.
This program requires several Perl packages which may not be installed
by default. In particular:
File::NCopy <http://search.cpan.org/dist/File-NCopy/lib/File/NCopy.pm>
Mail::Sendmail <http://search.cpan.org/~mivkovic/Mail-Sendmail-0.79/Sendmail.pm>
Installation instructions for these are provided on those pages,
though your OS may provide an alternative means to install them.
To install changetrack, copy the executable to your favourite location
in your $PATH; I suggest /usr/local/bin/. Copy changetrack.man to your
favourite location in the $MANPATH; I suggest
/usr/local/man/man1/. Copy changetrack.conf to ~/.changtrackrc, or if
you plan to run changetrack as root, /etc/changetrack.conf.
Finally, set up a cron job so changetrack runs periodically. To do this type
"crontab -e". This will open your cron tab in your editor. Add a
line like "0 12 * * * changetrack -uq". This will run changetrack
every day at noon.
