INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Before you start ...

Do you have the following, and know where they reside on your machine

1.	A working version of Perl4?  If not, you can ftp one from
	prep.ai.mit.edu in as /pub/gnu/perl-4.036.tar.gz.
2.	A working version of the ImageMagick tool Convert?  If not
	you can get it at any point of X11R5 contrib distribution.


Once you have these tools installed ...

1.	Create an account on your server to handle all the projects
	page mail.  Names such as "projects" or "cocobrd" are good
	userids for these users.
2.	Create an area in your www tree belonging to your user.
	Perhaps "/www/CoCoBoard".  Make sure this directory is
	permissions 755.  You may want to put password protection
	on this directory.  For more information on password protection
	with NCSA httpd, see http://hoohoo/docs/tutorials/user.html
3.	Untar the CoCoBoard in the home directory of the
	cocoboard user as the cocoboard user.
4.	This will create a directory called ~/CoCoBoard. In that directory,
	edit the script Configure, and change the line

	#!/usr/local/bin/perl

	to point at a working version of perl on your system.
5.	Run ./Configure in the CoCoBoard directory.  Answer the questions
	if asks you.
6.	Change to the directory CoCoBoard/tools.  There you can make projects
	with the "makeproject" command.  Create any projects you may
	need.  

You are now ready to begin using the CoCoBoard.  Read the above
URL and send off a bit of mail.  If you've done everything properly,
it should become htmlized!
