I have included precomiled binaries in the distribution. If you don't
want to use these then remove then and recompile using the
instructions specified below.

The first thing you need to do is patch some of the files in the telnet
directory so, do this from the tn/tn3270 subdirectory.

	cd <wherever>/tn/tn3270
	patch -p0 < tn3270.diff

IMPORTANT NOTE: I have already done this part for you. The *.orig files
are the originals should you choose not to want Eric's little additional
features and patches. -Bill

This will patch some of the files in the telnet directory, but should not
affect how telnet itself works if you compile it.  Ok now first we need
to make telnet and its various pieces, which will then be used to 
support Tn3270. So from the tn directory you need to build at least
libtelnet (it may be already built, but you probably want to remake it
just to be sure), so:

	cd ../libtelnet
	make
	

Once this is done:

	cd ../tn3270
	make

You will most likely see a couple of warnings about SIGBUS and one other
warning, but that's ok. The program compiles fine and you can just ignore
them.

When it all finishes ok, you should now have a tn3270 and an mset binary to
stick where you want. You will most likely want to 'strip' the executables
as they are quite large with the debugging information in them.

The support files are in tn3270/man and tn3270/etc.  The stuff in
tn3270/etc needs to go in, or be simlinked in /etc, that's where tn3270
will go looking for it.  Put your man pages where you see fit 
(probably in the /usr/man/man* somewhere :-) )

As usual my disclaimer.  I don't claim this stuff is suitable for anything,
but I hope you find it useful.  I'm incredibly busy these days, but if you
see something you think I might want to know go ahead and email me.  One
of these days I'll get color support built into Tn3270, but give me time.

I also want to clean up the ugly make files, and make things a little nicer.
The natives are clamouring, however, and since it works, I thought I'd get
it out to you folks.

Same goes for me too. This should be pretty much make right out of the package
as I have tested it myself. If you run into problems then e-mail me and I
will try to help you out, but I realize that I am busy and may not respond
as quickly as you would like. Enjoy :)
