Hello. glpk is awesome; keep it up!
There is no "read.me" file in the examples section, and I wasted quite
a long time fiddling about
getting the examples to work [I am a mathematician but not a programmer]
It is not immediately obvious how to run sudoku.mod, for example. A
short sentence or two
in a read.me file would have saved me a lot of googling and frustration.
How about this for a first suggestion:
<suggested file contents>
To run these examples, you need to install the package (see the INSTALL
file),
then type
"glpsol -m sudoku.mod"
on the command line. You may find that installing with
"./configure --disable-shared ; make; sudo make install"
avoids some commonly-encountered errors.
</suggested file contents>
OK, I know that this might look blindingly obvious; but it wasn't
obvious to me earlier today.
best wishes
