				Cronos II 0.2.2-MR2

===============
= What is it? =
===============
Cronos II is a powerful GNOME mail client very fast, flexible, light and friendly.

===================
= Where to get it =
===================
Check out http://cronosII.sourceforge.net/ for the latest version.

================
= Requirements =
================
o Gnome-libs (http://www.gnome.org)
o LinuxThreads (Pthreads)
o Gnome-Print (Optional)
	for source builds.


================
= Installation =

The standard GNU / GNOME Installation method

./configure --help (for options)
e.g. --prefix=xxxx
      --disable-xxxx
      etc.

Default build and install::
./configure
make
make install

You might want to check out the INSTALL file for further information.

!!- Plugins - !!
Those strange XXXXX.so files in the top level directory are the plugin binaries.
By default they will auto install (from that position)
Those files are copies of the originals in the plugins/* directory branch.
See the read-me file(s) for instructions on installing / rebuilding Plugins the hard way. :)



======================

and Pablo Fernndez Navarro and with a UI by Pablo Fernndez Navarro.
Other great news about this version is the Queue mailbox by Andr Casteliano.
##############################################################################
Addendum: Dec 01 2001:

# This is probably the last version of CronosII in this format.#

The new version is very promising and nearing release at this time (Dec 01 2001).
 I am sure you will find that it has been worth the wait. 
In the interests of our current users and stability I will endeavour to maintain the Maintenance Versions until the new Scratch version goes stable.
#At that time support for this version of CronosII will be discontinued.#
Please Note: The real coders are working on the new version not this one. :)

	i.e. I do my best but "hacker" is NOT one of the words used to describe me.
