This is a distribution of Release 5.1 of the
Siemens RTL Tiled Window Manager

------------------------------------------------------------

There are 14 compressed tar files.
Join them by:
	% cat rtl.tar.Z.* > rtl.tar.Z

Uncompress them by:
	% uncompress rtl.tar

Extract the files by:
	% tar xf rtl.tar

There should now be 3 subdirectories:

     doc, custom, and extras

------------------------------------------------------------

          The top directory contains

    -- .c, .h, and i. files -- source for rtl
    -- IMakefile -- a simple Makefile to make the system

To make rtl:
	-- If you got this on the Release 3 tape, it should build when you build 
	   the contrib tree.
	-- Otherwise, set TOPDIR to the top of your X sources;
	   make Makefile (calls Imake to build a correct
	   Makefile); make all (to build rtl)

------------------------------------------------------------

          The doc subdirectory contains

    -- ANNOUNCENT -- The announcement of Release 5.1 with a list of features
    -- plaintext -- A subdirectory with plaintext versions of the documentation
    -- tex -- A subdirectory with tex versions of the documentation
    -- scribe -- A subdirectory with scribe versions of the documentation
    -- postscript -- A subdirectory with postscript versions of the documentation

          Each of the subdirectories within doc contains (w appropriate extensions)

    -- tutorial5 -- A tutorial for first time users of rtl
    -- manual5 -- A manual for release 5.1
    -- refpage5 -- A quick reference page for a 3 button mouse
    -- refpage_one5 -- A quick reference page for a 1 button mouse

------------------------------------------------------------

          The custom subdirectory contains

    -- bitmaps -- a variety of bitmap files used as pixmap icons
    -- ellis, berman, jcc -- The customization files used by each of the developers

          The customization subdirectories ( ellis, berman & jcc ) may contain

    -- .rtl.preferences -- the main preference file for rtl-related options
    -- .rtl.profiles -- specifies additional preference files
    -- .rtl.tools -- for setting up the Tools submenu
    -- .rtl.startup -- a file optionally executed on startup
    -- .rtl.layout -- holds a saved window layout

See the tutorial and the Customization section of the manual for more information.

------------------------------------------------------------

          The extras subdirectory contains

    -- rhyme.c and rhymes -- edit rhyme.c to open "rhymes" on the correct
       path, then compile and run it in an xterm window.

    -- yow.c, yow2.c, yow-press.c, yow-transient.c  -- each of
       these is a test program for window managers.

	yow-transient.c uses client icon and transient windows
