The parent holds all the source files to compile pcb. The only
requirements are:
1. An installation of X11 including header files and the athena
widget library (HP users that means you) and. X11R5 is highly
recommended.
2. An ANSI compiler (eg GCC) and maybe a newer version of bison and flex
as a replacement for yacc and lex. See 'Problems' in the manual.
3. A 'long' filesystem
4. TeX, texindex and dvips to build postscript versions of the
manuals.
For installing the release refer to the file 'INSTALL'.
For additional information to the manual 'pcb.man' or the texinfo file
'pcb.texi'.
