!       Installation procedures for `send-pr'
! 
! If you receive `send-pr' as part of a larger software distribution, it
! will be automatically installed when the full distribution is
! installed.  The `send-pr' directory, however, is easily installed by
! itself by following these steps:
! 
! 1.  Unpack the distribution into a directory which we will refer to as
!     SRCDIR.  
! 
! 2.  Edit the `Makefile' to reflect local conventions.
! 
!     Specifically, you should edit the variable "prefix" to alter
!     the installation location.  The default is '/usr/local'.  All
!     files are installed under "prefix" (see below).
! 
! 3.  Run 
!       make all install [ info ] install-info [ clean ]
! 
!     from the "build directory".  The targets mean the following:
! 
!        all    Builds `send-pr' and `install-sid'
! 
!      install  Installs the following:
! 
!                           send-pr     into PREFIX/bin 
!                       install-sid     into PREFIX/bin
!                         send-pr.1     into PREFIX/man/man1
!                        categories     as PREFIX/lib/gnats/SITE
!                     send-pr-el.in     as PREFIX/lib/emacs/lisp/send-pr.el
! 
!         info  (optional) Builds "send-pr.info" from "send-pr.texi"
!               (send-pr.info is included with this distribution)
! 
! install-info  Installs "send-pr.info" into PREFIX/info
! 
!        clean  (optional) Removes all intermediary build files that can
!                          be rebuilt from source code
! 
! 4.  Run 
! 
!       install-sid SID
! 
!     where SID is the submitter identification code you received with
!     `send-pr'.  If you've downloaded `send-pr' from the Net, use "net"
!     for this value.
! 
! 
! 5.  Any users who wish to use the Emacs version of `send-pr' must place
!     the following line in their ".emacs" files:
! 
!       (autoload 'send-pr "send-pr" "Submit a Problem Report." t)
! 
! 
! 6.  Create a mail alias for the support site you received `send-pr'
!     from, and for every site with which you wish to use `send-pr' to
!     communicate with, each with a suffix of `-gnats'.  The support
!     site(s) will provide the correct addresses toward which these
!     aliases should point.  For instance, edit your mail aliases file
!     to contain something like:
! 
!       # support sites; for use with send-pr
!       cygnus-gnats:     address@hidden            # Cygnus Support
!       bumblebee-gnats:  address@hidden   # Bumblebee BASIC, Inc.
!       mycompany-gnats:  address@hidden      (if you use GNATS locally)
! 
!     `send-pr' automatically searches for these aliases when you type
! 
!       send-pr cygnus
!       send-pr bumblebee
!       send-pr SITE...
! 
!     `send-pr' also uses SITE to determine the categories of bugs the site
!     in question accepts by looking in PREFIX/lib/gnats/SITE
! 
! 
! 7.  That's it!  See "send-pr.info", "send-pr.texi", and/or "send-pr.1" for
!     information on using `send-pr'.
