       The file(s)

             BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz

       in this directory contain(s) the plain sources of "Build'n'Play".

       Note that you may need additional source distribution files of
       tools used and software packages installed by "Build'n'Play".

       You can find these additional sources (as separate files) in
       the subdirectory "packages" at one of the following URLs:

             http://www.engelschall.com/u/sb/download/bnp/
             http://www.ch.engelschall.com/u/sb/download/bnp/
             http://www.de.engelschall.com/u/sb/download/bnp/
             ftp://ftp.engelschall.com/pub/bnp/

       Alternatively, you can download these sources all at once by
       fetching the file

             pkg.tar.gz

       from one of the URLs above.

       At the same URLs you will also find a file named

             BnP-*.*.*.pkg.tar.gz

       (note the ".pkg." in the name) which contains the sources
       of "Build'n'Play" _PLUS_ the file "pkg.tar.gz".

       If you download this latter file you can skip the following
       two paragraphs.

       1) When you downloaded

             BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz
             pkg.tar.gz

          then proceed as follows:

             % gunzip pkg.tar.gz
             % gunzip BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz
             % tar xf BnP-*.*.*.tar
             % cd BnP-*.*.*/
             % tar xf ../pkg.tar

          Note that you can use

             % gunzip -c BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz | tar xf -

          on most machines instead of

             % gunzip BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz
             % tar xf BnP-*.*.*.tar

       2) When you downloaded

             BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz
             <*>.tar.gz          (i.e., additional sources, separately)

          then proceed as follows:

             % gunzip BnP-*.*.*.tar.gz
             % tar xf BnP-*.*.*.tar
             % cd BnP-*.*.*/
             % mkdir src
             % mv ../<*>.tar.gz src/

          Thereby substitute the name(s) of the additional source file(s)
          for the "<*>" above.

       After this, follow the installation instructions given in the files
       "INSTALL.de" (German) and "INSTALL.en" (English).

       Please consult the file "BUGS.txt" at the URLs mentioned above
       for a list of know bugs (and possibly a corresponding work-around).

       Please report any new bugs you might find to <sb@engelschall.com>.
       Thank you!

       Enjoy!

       Best regards,

           Steffen Beyer
