This is version 2.15 of mimir. If you encounter any problems
while compiling or testing mimir, do not hesitate to email me
(marcs@cs.ru.nl) and I will try and correct the problems.

Mimir makes use of the following GNU tools when compiling under
Unix:

- gcc
- make	(the GNU make, check with --version)

All of these tools are available from a large number of ftp-sites.
Indirectly, mimir also uses bison and flex. However the C code
generated by these generators is included in the distribution.

When compiling under Microsoft Windows either use MINGW/Cygwin
solution or compile with Visual C++ (See the subdirectory
msvc60 and msvc71 for workspace and project files).

I have successfully built and tested mimir on the following
platforms:

   CPU          OS              Comment
   i686         Linux 2.2
   i686         Linux 2.4
   i686         FreeBSD 4.x	SMP
   i686		WIN2000, WINXP	See the msvc60 and msvc71 directory
   sparc-sun4   Solaris 2.7/2.8/2.9
   sparc64	FreeBSD 6.0
   alpha        NetBSD 1.6,2.0	See remark below
   mips-sgi     Irix 6.5        with lib32

                                Success, Marc Seutter

Note for use with NetBSD:
There seems to be a little problem with libtool on NetBSD since it
tries to link the executable dcg against the just built libdcg without
setting the library path to point to the location where the library
will be installed. One option is to configure dcg with --disable-shared.
The other is to build dcg, install it, then relink the executable
against the now correctly installed libdcg and then reinstall the
executable. The third solution is to rebuild the entire distro by
entering: aclocal;libtoolize;autoheader;automake -a;autoconf. If
you then configure and use your locally provided libtoolize, you should
be able to correctly install the shared libraries and executable.
