Grecs README
Copyright (C) 2011-2016 Sergey Poznyakoff
See the end of file for copying conditions.

* Introduction

This file contains brief information about configuring, testing
and installing Grecs library. It is *not* intended as a replacement
for the documentation, and is provided as a brief reference only.
The complete documentation for Grecs is available in the
doc/ subdirectory, both as a set of manpages and as texinfo
documents. To access the latter without installing the package
run `info -f doc/grecs.info'. After the package is installed
the documentation can be accessed by running `info grecs'. 

An online copy of the documentation in various formats is available
at http://grecs.man.gnu.org.ua.

* Overview

Grecs is a library for parsing structured configuration files from
C programs. A structured configuration file has hierarchical
structure, with block statements enclosing lower-level
statements. Such configurations files are used by many programs, such
as, e.g. Bind or Dico.

Grecs provides primitives for parsing such files into an internal
tree-like structure and for basic operations on such structures. These
operations include value lookups by keyword paths, traversing trees
recursively, joining several trees together, reductions, etc.

* Downloads

New versions of Libgrecs are available for download from

  ftp://download.gnu.org.ua/pub/release/grecs

* Building

The usual build rules apply:

  ./configure [OPTIONS]
  make
  make install

For generic installation instructions, including a discussion of
available [OPTIONS], see the file INSTALL in this directory.
