these examples rely on dot.conf being already installed on your system. The context and duplicate examples also rely on libpool being built, but it does not need to be installed. to build, simply cd into the example's directory and type $ make for everything that remains unclear you may consult the documentation, or contact me at <w.d.hubbs@gmail.com> the duplicates/ example has been provided by Joost Remijn to show what you can do with his DUPLICATE_OPTION_NAME feature. You need at least dot.conf 1.0.9 to use it. enjoy.
