A. DOT-FILES [ ./.[!D][!S]??* ]

	A set of Home-directory dot-files, the principal ones for
	configuration of Unix on a mac running os x 10.3; should work
	for 10.4

	The configuration is necessarily idiosyncratic.  The files
	are posted in the hope they will be useful as models/examples,
	especially for those working with mac os x (or Unix) for
	the first time.

	To install, copy to Home directory, excluding .DS_Store,
	e.g.:
		cp -p ./.[!D][!S]??* ~

	There is also a set of files, of same content and name as
	the dot-files, except the lead "dot" of the name has been
	removed, to make it easier to view file contents from the
	finder.


B. INFORMATION AND FILES FOR MAC OS X CONFIGURATION

	The directory ./0burn-050529 has information and files for
	configuration of mac os x, beyond install of the Home directory
	configuration files.

	Directories ./0burn-050529/[bin,man] have executables
	(mostly locally-created binaries and scripts) and their man pages.
	Sources for the binaries, compilable under mac os x 10.3, 
	are in the directory ../src

	./0burn-050529/root/clone-050525/mkbackup is a script that
	clones the system (a bootable backup).

	File ./0burn-050529/0README has suggestions on how to set
	up mac os x.

	Files in the directory ./0burn-050529/mac-notes give
	information on mac os x and its configuration:
