                     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:
