+Alck README.
+Copyright (C) 2013 Sergey Poznyakoff
+See the end of file for copying conditions.
+
+* Overview
+
+Alck checks one or several sendmail-style alias files for consistency.
+See the accompanying manpage, alck.1, for a detailed description.
+
+* Building and Configuring
+
+Run 'make' to build the program. Run 'make install' as a
+superuser to install it. By default, the utility is installed
+in /usr/local/bin. To change the installation directory, use
+the PREFIX make variable. For example, the following command:
+
+ make install PREFIX=/usr
+
+will install the binary in /usr/bin and the manpage in
+/usr/share/man/man1.
+
+Specific installation directories can be overridden using the
+following variables:
+
+ BINDIR the directory where the binary is to be installed
+ MANDIR the directory where the manpage is to be installed
+
