To install:
If you're on Debian (GNU/)Linux, type "make" and then "make install". If
you're on some other UNIX, give it a try, and tweak the Makefile if and when
you get errors. If you're really ticked off because there's no configure
script, read the TODO file, and help out -- I'm going to delve into the
byzantine mysteries of autoconf/automake, but only in my spare time.
