                      9:   library(1) works by mailing requests to mhuxd!techlib. Under the new
                     10: version (3.2 and up) this is mainly table driven by the files installed in 
                     11:        INSLIB=/usr/lib/library
                     12: Change the Makefile if you want this elsewhere.
                     13:  
                     14:  One possible problem is if mail(1) does not go between your machine 
                     15: and mhuxd. Please test this when library(1) is installed
                     16: (try sending mail to mhuxd!your-machine!LOGIN).
                     17:   library(1) will respond over the path it receives things. The mail path
                     18: is indicated on line ~15 in library.c  Presently it is mhuxd!techlib.
                     19: Feel free to add hops in the middle (e.g. xyz1!mhuxd!techlib). However,
                     20: note that the more links in the path the slower and less reliable the mail.
                     21: 
                     22:      *********    NOTE     (especially non-BTL administrators)  ********
                     23: Some things orderable by library only really work for BTL people. If you
                     24: and/or your users run into this you may simply want to remove the option.
                     25: In most cases this can be done by removing or changing a file in 
                     26: /usr/lib/library
                     27: 
                     28:     **********  NOTE for BSD systems   ***************
                     29: There is a special CFLAGS commented out in the Makefile for you. See gnamef.h
                     30: for its effects.  Also, you may have to swipe <regexp.h> from a system V
                     31: machine.
