2WHAT IS THIS ?
3==============
4
5This is the source distribution of the Tcl Thread extension. 
6You can use this extension to gain script-level access to Tcl 
7threading capabilities.
8The extension can be used with Tcl cores starting from Tcl8.4 and later.
9Also, this extension supports, i.e. can be used as a loadable module of,
10AOLserver 4.x series of the highly-scalable web server from America Online. 
11
12You need to have your Tcl core compiled with "--enable-threads" in order
13to turn on internal directives supporting thread-specific details of the
14Tcl API. The extension will not load in an Tcl shell built w/o thread
15support. 
16
17This extension is a freely available open source package. You can do 
18virtually anything you like with it, such as modifying it, redistributing
19it, and selling it either in whole or in part.  See the "license.terms"
20file in the top-level distribution directory for complete information.

23HOW TO COMPILE ?
24================
25
26Only Unix-like and Windows platforms are supported at the moment. Depending
27on your platform (Unix-like or Windows) go to the appropriate directory 
28(unix or win) and start with the README file. Macintosh platform is supported
29with the Mac OS X only. The Mac OS 9 (and previous) are not supported.
30
31
32WHERE IS THE DOCUMENTATION ?
33============================
34
35Documentation in Unix man and standard HTML format is available in the
36doc/man and doc/html directories respectively. 
37Currently, documentation is in reference-style only. The tutorial-style
38documentation will be provided with future releases of the extension.
39That is, if I ever get time to do that. Everybody is more than welcome
40to jump in and help with the docs.
41
42
43HOW TO GET SUPPORT ?

46The extension is maintained, enhanced, and distributed freely by the Tcl
47community. The home for sources and bug/patch database is on SourceForge:
