Expand V2.0 README.txt
-----------------------------------------------------------------

See expand.html for documentation on how to use Expand.

The distribution includes the following files:

README.txt      This file.
license.txt     The license for using Expand.
expand.tcl	The Expand tool itself.
expand.html     The Expand man page.
expand.ehmtl    The unexpanded source for the Expand man page,
                from which expand.html was created.
manrules.tcl    A sample Expand rules file, used to produce
                expand.html from expand.ehtml.

Installation
-----------------------------------------------------------------

To use Expand, you need to have Tcl installed on your system.
Expand 2.0 was written for Tcl 8.0, and has been tested with 
Tcl 8.3.1; it should work perfectly for any version in between.
It may well work with Tcl 7.x as well, but I haven't
tested that.

The expand.tcl script can be installed in any way that is convenient.
On my PC I have in C:\bin, and execute it explicitly:

    C> tclsh83 C:\bin\expand.tcl arguments....

On a Unix machine, expand.tcl can be turned into an executable 
script, as described in the tclsh(1) manpage.

I usually keep rules files, like manrules.tcl, with the source
text to be expanded.  In this case, that's expand.ehtml.
