Zlib.1.1.1.1.m.README
Mar 5, 1998

This archive contains a Rhapsody framework for zlib 1.1.1,
a general purpose data compression library.  All the code is
reentrant (thread safe).  The data format used by the zlib library
is described by RFCs (Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files
ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc1950.txt (zlib format), rfc1951.txt (deflate
format) and rfc1952.txt (gzip format).

file:	Zlib.1.1.1.1.PI.tar.gz
size:	152kb

INSTALLATION

Upack the archive:
> gnutar xzvf Zlib.1.1.1.1.PI.tar.gz
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.

I cheated building this package.  The .tar.Z inside the pkg wrapper
is REALLY a .tar.gz archive, which makes this package much smaller.
The installer.sh doesn't mind, since it just pipes it to gzip and gnutar.

Boy, I'm cheating a lot!  (-:


CHANGELOG

- First attempt (Rhapsody)
- Upgrade to zlib-1.1.1

Jan 26, 1998
- First attempt (OpenStep)
- Changed named from (originally) Z to Zlib (taking
  a hint from Omnigroup's OmniZlib.framework.  Besides,
  Z.framework isn't very descriptive.
