REPOSITORIAL

The contents of this revision controlled document repository are a computer
source code implementation of TRACTORGEN, being a model of ASCII tractor
mechanics.

It is recommended that one study these documents closely in order to better
understand the finer details of the subject at hand. The authors firmly
believe that only through such preparation, preferably during the course of
one's daily study regimen, can a deeper appreciation of the theory be
attained.

As a side note, it has been noted by correspondents that it is possible to
derive a computer readable binary executable from these documents through
the use of sophisticated compiler technology. On the off chance that any
readers would wish to pursue this path, we include the apparent preparation
for doing so herein, as quoted:

$ automake -a
$ autoreconf

Upon completion of this procedure, which we expect should take on the
order of one to two weeks (of course the actual time depends on the
staffing resources of your local computer centre), a new document shall
be generated _as though from nought!_ [emphasis added]. The name of
this document is expected to be "configure", and it may itself be
executed thus:

$ ./configure

We recommend scheduling a vacation!

Upon your return, type "make", then "make install", and prepare your
experimental apparati forthwith:

$ tractorgen

Generates ASCII tractors.
