------------------------
STEP 1: Configure Source
------------------------

	Configure the source for your system, type:

	# ./configure --listall

	This will run the compiler test and print all available
	platforms. Choose the most appropriate platform and
	add any additional arguments as needed (see ./configure --help
	for more information on enabling/disabling and overriding
	source configuration values).

	To select your platform simply type the platform name and
	any additional arguments to the ./configure line, example:

	# ./configure Linux --prefix=/usr -v --enable="arch-i586"


------------------------ 
STEP 2: Building Program
------------------------ 

	If there were no problems configuring the source for your
	system, then just type:

	# make all

	This will start the compiling process.

	If you encountered errors, then you should report them to the
	authors. Read the AUTHORS file for a list of addresses.


--------------------
STEP 3: INSTALLATION
--------------------

	To install, su to root as needed and type:

	# make install

	Note: If you specified an alternate prefix in the ./configure
	line then the installation location may be different than shown
	below.

	Data files are installed in:

		/usr/share/vertex/

		/usr/share/icons/vertex.xpm

	Program is installed in:

		/usr/bin/vertex


---------------
STEP 4: RUNNING
---------------

	To run this program, type:

	# vertex &

	You will be prompted for local data files installation when
	you run this program for the first time.

        For additional command line options, type:

        # vertex --help


	If you need additional help, don't hesitate to ask. You can
	contact the authors via e-mail, please read the file AUTHORS
