What's in nefcon_1.0.bin.linux.tar?
==================================

This are partly statically linked binaries for a LINUX machine. 
I compiled it using g++ 2.5.8 under kernel version 1.0.  You don't need 
InterViews to run these programs, but you need the following libraries:

(nauck@sulu) bin 108 > ldd datagen
        libX11.so.3 (DLL Jump 3.1) => /usr/X386/lib/libX11.so.3.1.0
        libm.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libm.so.4.5.26
        libc.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libc.so.4.5.26
(nauck@sulu) bin 109 > ldd nefcon
        libX11.so.3 (DLL Jump 3.1) => /usr/X386/lib/libX11.so.3.1.0
        libm.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libm.so.4.5.26
        libc.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libc.so.4.5.26
(nauck@sulu) bin 110 > ldd pendulum 
        libX11.so.3 (DLL Jump 3.1) => /usr/X386/lib/libX11.so.3.1.0
        libm.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libm.so.4.5.26
        libc.so.4 (DLL Jump 4.5pl24) => /lib/libc.so.4.5.26

The tar file includes the executables nefcon, pendulum and datagen. 
Also included is the directory /data that includes examples to be used 
with nefcon. Please print and read the documentation in MANUAL.ps 
on how to use NEFCON-I.


What's in nefcon_1.0.bin-elf.linux.tar?
=======================================

This is a recompiled version of NEFCON 1.0 for newer Linux distributions
using the ELF binary format, and X11R6. The binaries are also statically
linked. The binaries are stripped. Please report problems with these
binaries to me.


What's in nefcon_1.0.bin-elf.linux-nostripped.tar?
===================================================

This is a recompiled version of NEFCON 1.0 for newer Linux distributions
using the ELF binary format, and X11R6. The binaries are also statically
linked but not stripped, i.e. they contain debug symbols. Therefore this 
tar-file is 4MB in size, and you probably do not want to have it.


THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE THAT THESE PROGRAMS WILL RUN ON 
YOUR SYSTEM, AND THERE IS ALSO ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE THAT 
THESE PROGRAMS WILL NOT BE HARMFUL TO YOUR HARDWARE OR YOUR DATA. 
USE THEM AT YOUR OWN PERIL!
