-well, i've finally sat down and started doing distribution set

-anyway, grab ~cgd/sets.tar.gz -- it's three scripts, and a bunch

 the scripts should be run from the directory where they reside.

-I've made attempts to get the md files for the amiga, i386, hp300, and

-what you folks need to do:
-
-run 'checkflist' on a tree that you've created with 'make
-distribution'.  send me the output, and i'll take care of putting
-stuff on the right lists for you.  In the future, you'll get
-to do it yourselves, as you add programs and include files, but
-i'd prefer to do it the first time (unless you really want to do it
-yourself -- in that case, please ask me to check your suggestions
-re: the appropriate sets for things...)  There should be a minimal
-list output by checkflist -- it should all be things that
-_should_ be on your lsits, but aren't, i.e. machine-dependent
-binaries, man pages, and include files.

-Also, please look through the lists, and tell me if you think
-i've put anything in the wrong place.  i think i've
-taken care of all of the machine-dependence bugaboos, by
-doing it for the N architectures, but i'm not _sure_...  8-)
