+TPIE. The TPIE manual, this README file, a list of changes since the
+last release, and the main distribution tar file are available
+separately from the TPIE web site.
 
+The manual for TPIE will be created as file "tpie.ps" in the directory
+tpie_0.9.01b/doc by the unzip/tar step below.  The manual includes
+additional details regarding the installation procedure for TPIE.
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
-The manual contains a full account on how to build and use TPIE.
-First generate the Makefiles using:
+              INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
+              =========================
 
-./configure
+Place "tpie_0.9.01b.tgz" in the directory in which TPIE is to be
+installed, "cd" into that directory, and execute the command
 
-Run GNU make (gmake or /usr/local/bin/make on most systems):
+   tar xzf tpie_0.9.01b.tgz
 
-/usr/local/bin/make all
+or 
 
-This should build the entire distribution.
+   gunzip -c tpie_0.9.01b.tgz | tar xvf -  
+
+This will produce a directory "tpie_0.9.01b" with subdirectories
+"doc", "include", "lib", "lib/src", and "test".  Enter the directory
+"tpie_0.9.01b".  You must now configure TPIE for your particular
+system.  To do this, use the command
+
+   ./configure
+
+The configuration program will produce the various Makefiles and
+configuration files required to build TPIE on your system.  When this
+is done, invoke your version of GNU "make":
+
+   make all
+
+to build the complete TPIE system.  This will build the components of
+TPIE that must be tailored to your system. This includes: the TPIE
+run-time library "tpie_0.9.01b/lib/libtpie.a", the test and sample
+programs in directory "tpie_0.9.01b/test", and certain header files in
+"tpie_0.9.01b/include".
+
+You should now have a complete TPIE system, consisting of the
+directories "include", "doc", "lib", "lib/src", "test".
+
+The manual for TPIE will be created as file "tpie.ps" in the directory
+tpie_0.9.01b/doc by the unzip/tar step above. It is also available
+separately from the TPIE web site, http://www.cs.duke.edu/TPIE.
 
 If you have problems, please consult the manual; there are some
