+This is a brief summary of the most important changes. A more
+detailed description is given below.
Slightly changed installation directories. See INSTALL.
Therefore, you are probably better off ignoring your old config.sh, as
in the following:
- make distclean # (if you've built perl before)
+ make -k distclean # (if you've built perl before)
rm -f config.sh # (in case distclean mysteriously fails)
sh Configure [whatever options you like]
make depend
make
make test
+This, and much more, is described in the new INSTALL file.
+

+Index: Configure
+
+Upgraded to metaconfig PL60 (despite the erroneous metaconfig message.
+
+Layed some groundwork for support on non Unix systems, such as OS/2.
+Define things such as .o vs. .obj, '' vs. .exe, .a vs. .lib, etc.
+
+Include I_LOCALE testing.
+
+Include checks for new library set-up. I don't want to ever have to
+change this again. It's documented more clearly in INSTALL.
+
+Figure out correct string for $startperl (usually
+#!/usr/local/bin/perl).
+
+Improve signal detection even more. Once again, the signal number
+corresponding to sig_name[n] is n (up to NSIG-1). Gaps in signal
+numbers (e.g. on Solaris) are allowed and are filled with
+innocuous names such as NUM37 NUM38, etc., where the 37 or 38
+represents the actual signal number.

+
+In an attempt to make the distribution slightly less Unix specific,
+I've changed .SH extraction to a .PL extraction where possible.
+That way folks on systems without a shell can still get the
+auxilliarly files such as find2perl (assuming they *can* build
+perl).
+
+The emacs/ directory was hopelessly out of date. I don't use emacs,
+but included a current cperl-mode.el

-=head1 NAME
-
-POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE 1003.1 namespace
-
-=head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use POSIX;
- use POSIX 'strftime';
-
-=head1 DESCRIPTION
-
-The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard
-POSIX 1003.1 identifiers. Things which are C<#defines> in C, like EINTR
-or O_NDELAY, are automatically exported into your namespace. All
-functions are only exported if you ask for them explicitly. Most likely
-people will prefer to use the fully-qualified function names.
-

+=head1 NAME
+
+POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE Std 1003.1
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard
+POSIX 1003.1 identifiers. Many of these identifiers have been given Perl-ish
+interfaces. Things which are C<#defines> in C, like EINTR or O_NDELAY, are
+automatically exported into your namespace. All functions are only exported
+if you ask for them explicitly. Most likely people will prefer to use the
+fully-qualified function names.
+
+This document gives a condensed list of the features available in the POSIX
+module. Consult your operating system's manpages for general information on
+most features. Consult L<perlfunc> for functions which are noted as being
+identical to Perl's builtin functions.
+
+The first section describes POSIX functions from the 1003.1 specification.
+The second section describes some classes for signal objects, TTY objects,
+and other miscellaneous objects. The remaining sections list various
+constants and macros in an organization which roughly follows IEEE Std
+1003.1b-1993.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+ printf "EINTR is %d\n", EINTR;
+
+ $sess_id = POSIX::setsid();
+
+ $fd = POSIX::open($path, O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_WRONLY, 0644);
+ # note: that's a filedescriptor, *NOT* a filehandle
+

+
+The POSIX module is probably the most complex Perl module supplied with
+the standard distribution. It incorporates autoloading, namespace games,
