INSTALLATION

Install the framework to /LocalLibrary/Frameworks.  This is the easiest
place to put it, and software built with this framework expects it to
be there.  Alternate locations are possible, only if you know what you
are doing and/or you don't mind playing with the Makefile in the 
framework to change the default installation parameters.


NOTES

I cheated to make this framework.  It's not a TRUE framework built with
ProjectBuilder, but a homebrew concoction I've made to imitate the
real thing.  I just wanted a dylib version of the library, and this
is the result.
