PACKAGE OVERVIEW

  This source package compiles into a program "frb_analyze" 
  that computes the mutual information content of a 
  set of mathed fracture lines.
  
  This software was originally written by Helena Cristina da 
  gama Leitão between 1995 and 1999, in Modula-3, as part of her
  Ph. D. thesis project.  The programs were converted to C 
  and extensively modified by J. Stolfi in 2005.

REQUIREMENTS

  The programs were developed and tested on an Intel Gnu/Linux
  platform with gcc version 3.2.  They use nested functions, and
  hence may not compile with older versions of gcc, or with 
  non-Gnu compilers.

  The package is self-contained except for the standard C 
  headers and libraries (libc.a and libm.a).
