* Wbuild

Wbuild is a program for easier creating of X widgets. It reads
abbreviated code from a file and expands it with the boilerplate code
that every widget must have. It also generates the documentation.

* Files

The program has been written in C with Spidery WEB (Norman Ramsey
<nr@princeton.edu>). The WEB sources are included, but WEB is not
really needed. The .e files are automatically created header files (e
= export)

* Compilation

Check the Makefile for incompatible flags. If you change the scanner
or parser, you will need `bison'/`yacc' and `lex'/`flex'. If you use
`lex', remove the -DFLEX flag. Then just type `make'. If you don't
have the /etc/install program, you will have to copy the program by
hand. You will also have to install the manual page by hand.

- If you can't get lex or flex to run, you might try copying
  scan.c.nolex to scan.c and try again.

- If you can't get yacc or bison to run, you might try copying
  parse.c.noyacc to parse.c and try again. 

- If make complains about `ceetangle not found', it means that the
  relative dates of some of the source files are incorrect. Just do
  `touch *.c' and then `make' again.
