This directory contains "gema", the general-purpose macro processor.

The files here are:

   README.text		The file you are now reading.

   Summary.text		Summary description of what "gema" is.

   exe.zip		Executable program for MS-DOS; unpack with PKUNZIP.
			(Also works on Windows/NT.)

   gema-SPARC-SunOS.gz	Executable program for a SPARCstation with SunOS 4.

   gema.tar.gz		The complete source directory, including code (in
			  ANSI C), documentation, and examples.	 Uncompress
			  with "gunzip", then unpack with "tar" and see the
			  "README" file there for further instructions.

   html.tar.gz		Compressed tar file with the contents of the WWW
			  directory at: http://www.ugcs.caltech.edu/gema/
			  (These files can also be re-created from the
			   source directory.)

   postscript.tar.gz	Documentation in PostScript format.  (Instead of
			  downloading them, you can re-create these files
			  yourself from the source files if you have LaTeX,
			  "dvi2ps", and "ptroff".)

The source directory includes example macro definitions for converting
documents from LaTeX and "nroff -man" format to HTML. (these were actually
used to generate the WWW files.)

This is now version 1.1.  Compared to 1.0, it fixes a few obscure bugs and
enhances the MS-DOS version to expand command line wild cards for input
files.

"gema" is not a commercial product; it has been donated to the public
domain in order to maximize its usefulness.
