Notes on installing and using the DB Software Package on the Macintosh 
 
For general information on the DB Software Package, see the file 
`software/README.TXT'. 
 
See `db/MAC' for details on compiling the DB Software Package from the sources 
in the `db' directory. 
 
The `db' directory contains the DB Software Package in C source form.  The
files within the `db' directory are in UNIX text format (newlines are marked by
ASCII line feed characters only).  Pat Hamilton notes that:
 
  If you open these files with a standard editor they will look a little 
  odd because of the control character used for carriage returns.  With 
  Microsoft Word the character will look like a "]".  Use the replace 
  function to replace all "]" with carriage returns.  You will have to use 
  copy and paste to get the "]" and carriage return into the replace boxes, 
  because you can't type these control characters. 
 
If you can supply or test a Macintosh self-extracting archive (.sea) of the DB 
Software Package for inclusion in a future edition of this disk, please write 
to me (george@hstbme.mit.edu).
