        !            14: For more details and the names of other contributors, see the
        !            15: README file and gc.h.  This file describes typical use of
        !            16: the collector on a machine that is already supported.
        !            17:
        !            18: INSTALLATION:
        !            19: Under UN*X, type "make test".  Under OS/2 or Windows NT, copy the
        !            20: appropriate makefile to MAKEFILE, read it, and type "nmake test".
        !            21: Read the machine specific README if one exists.  The only way to
        !            22: develop code with the collector for Windows 3.1 is to develop under
        !            23: Windows NT, and then to use win32S.
        !            24:
        !            25: If you wish to use the cord (structured string) library type
        !            26: "make cords". (This requires an ANSI C compiler.  You may need
        !            27: to redefine CC in the Makefile.)
        !            28:
        !            29: If you wish to use the collector from C++, type
        !            30: "make c++".  These add further files to gc.a and to the include
        !            31: subdirectory.  See cord/cord.h and gc_c++.h.
        !            32:
        !            33: TYPICAL USE:
        !            34: Include "gc.h" from this directory.  Link against the appropriate library
        !            35: ("gc.a" under UN*X).  Replace calls to malloc by calls to GC_MALLOC,
        !            36: and calls to realloc by calls to GC_REALLOC.  If the object is known
        !            37: to never contain pointers, use GC_MALLOC_ATOMIC instead of
        !            38: GC_MALLOC.
        !            39:
        !            40: Define GC_DEBUG before including gc.h for additional checking.
        !            41:
