The GNU <CODE>gperf</CODE> perfect hash function generator utility was
originally written in GNU C++ by Douglas C. Schmidt. It is now also
available in a highly-portable "old-style" C version. The general
idea for the perfect hash function generator was inspired by Keith
Bostic's algorithm written in C, and distributed to net.sources around
1984. The current program is a heavily modified, enhanced, and extended
implementation of Keith's basic idea, created at the University of
California, Irvine. Bugs, patches, and suggestions should be reported
to <CODE><bug-gnu-utils@gnu.org></CODE> and <CODE><schmidt@ics.uci.edu></CODE>.
<LI>
Special thanks is extended to Michael Tiemann and Doug Lea, for
providing a useful compiler, and for giving me a forum to exhibit my
creation.
In addition, Adam de Boor and Nels Olson provided many tips and insights
that greatly helped improve the quality and functionality of <CODE>gperf</CODE>.
