Art Kagels utils2a_ak package

Hi, does anyone have a document prepared with steps and explanation of how to work with Art Kagels utils2a_ak package? I logged in there, and have no idea where to even start. What is it? What are the steps to get using it?

Benji: To get the package just go to the URL I gave you and click the button that says "Download the latest UTILS2_AK Package". Once you have the file it is a gzipped shell archive. Uncompress it with "gunzip utils2_ak.gz" then unpack the file by executing it with ksh or bash "ksh utils2_ak" in a subdirectory where you want to install the package. When the package unpacks it will offer to display the README.1st file describing its contents and the Buildit file which tells you how to build the package. Building it on Linux is trivial, just type "make". (On other platforms you may have to modify the make files, but that is described in the Buildit file.) The make file is capable of installing the executables, but you will have to edit it to change the INSTALLDIR variable to the path under which you want the executables to be copied - then just type "make install". If after unpacking the archive and reading instructions you have any trouble, let me know. Art Art S.
