This directory contains the Eli compiler construction system and its documentation. Three compressed tar files are provided: Eli*.tar.Z The full system with all documentation. Dvi*.tar.Z TeX dvi files for the Eli manuals. Ps*.tar.Z PostScript files for the Eli manuals. The * part of the file name indicates the current revision level. To transfer any of these files correctly using ftp(1), binary mode must be used. Once transferred, the following (or equivalent) can be used to extract the information: zcat Eli*.tar.Z | tar -xf - The files *.FILES in this directory list the names of the files that make up the corresponding compressed tar files. They may be useful in catching transmission errors. If you have a copy of an earlier revision level of Eli that you wish to upgrade, file "updates/README" explains how to obtain appropriate context diff files that can be applied using patch(1). We normally send small fixes to people by using the "tarmail" program. File "tarmail-2.3.sh" is a shar file that can be used to implement tarmail if you don't already have it running. Please note that there are at least two versions of tarmail; we use the more recent, which has been called "tarmail 2.3" by its author. Mail any general questions about the Eli system to: compiler@cs.colorado.edu Mail any bugs found while installing or using the system to: elibugs@cs.colorado.edu A mailing list for discussion of general Eli-related topics can be reached at: eli@cs.colorado.edu Mail sent to this list is archived monthly in the "mail" subdirectory here. To join the list send mail to: eli-request@cs.colorado.edu
