  This is the second release a  new  wp2x.  It mostly uses exactly the
same configuration files, with a number of additions, and some changes
in meaning. These are, of course, presently undocumented, this being a
very alpha release.

  There is a Unix Makefile included.
  I haven't tried it on anything other than a Sparc II running 4.1.1,
compiled with gcc.
  Please let me know how things go for you.
  The  HTML config  is oriented  towards converting WP  documents to a
format suitable for the  Journal. See wp.wp or wp.html. wp.wp-uu  is a
uuencoded version of wp.wp.

Here is an HTML reference to by bio.

  Here follows, the original readme file:

Before installing, make sure you have...

    1.  The wp2x.c source code.
    2.  As many *.cfg files as you feel like using.
    3.  The manual page (wp2x.1l)
    4.  An ANSI-C compiler.  At a minimum, your compiler must understand...
                function prototypes
                enums
                <stdarg.h>
                vfprintf


Installation procedure:

    0.  Decide if you want to have a lib/wp2x directory.

        If so, define the preprocessor symbol WP2X_DIR to its name,
        including double-quotation marks.  The supplied man page
        assumes you have chosen the name /usr/local/lib/wp2x.
        If you choose a different name, or decide not to install
        one, modify the man page accordingly.

    1.  Read the section titled PORTABILITY CONCERNS in wp2x.c.
        Understand it.

        If your operating system is not UNIX, MS-DOS,
        or the Amiga, also read dopen.c and (if you want) create
        a collection of #define's for your operating system, or live
        with the `generic' configuration.

    2.  Compile wp2x.c with whatever compiler switches are necessary
        to accomplish what is described in PORTABILITY CONCERNS.
        See the file `HINTS' for suggestions.  If your operating
        system is one of those mentioned above, define the symbol
        `UNIX', `MSDOS' or `AMIGA' (respectively) to your preprocessor.

    3.  Run the torture test by uudecoding torture.uue into torture.wp,
        then typing

            wp2x ascii.cfg torture.wp >torture.out

        It should produce eight warnings.

        If torture.out is not identical to torture.chk, find out
	why and fix it.  (Or complain to the author.)

    3.  Put the sample *.cfg files in a vaguely obvious place.
        Adjust the directory name in the man page to point to that
        vaguely obvious place.

    4.  Put the executable and man page in the places such things are
        kept on your system.
