Purpose:
   This file describes how to make the utility program NEWGEO.

Brief description of distribution:
   Two subdirectories are supplied.  The first, called "utility" is a
   utility library of routines used by NEWGEO (and other programs).  The
   second, "newgeo" contains the greatly abbreviated source code to the
   NEWGEO program (only SYBYL mol/mol2 and MM2/MM3 file conversions).

Contents:
   release/
      README.newgeo	- this file.

      utility/
         utility.make	- make file to build the utility library.
         utility.h	- the header file describing the library routines.
         *.c		- the source to the utility.a library.

      newgeo/
         newgeo.make	- make file to build NEWGEO program.
         newgeo.h	- header file for NEWGEO.
         *.c		- source to abbreviated NEWGEO program.

Procedure:

1. NEWGEO compilation requires two environment variables (used in make file).
   Define LOCAL_INCLUDES to be whatever directory contains the "utility.h"
   header file (distributed in release/utility).  Define LOCAL_LIBS to
   be the directory that contains the "utility.a" library (also distributed
   in release/utility).  Alternatively, modify the newgeo.make and
   utility.make files to use explicit paths rather than these environment
   variables.

2. Cd to the utility directory and say "make -f utility.make".  This builds
   the utility library used in the next step.

3. Cd to the newgeo directory and say "make -f newgeo.make".  The executable
   is called "newgeo".

Caveats:

1. The full NEWGEO source was rudely truncated to the modules of interest.
   The distribution compiles and links fine.  When run, many more choices
   are prompted for than are really available (only SYBYL and MM2/MM3 are
   really options).

2. No testing was done on the abbreviated executable.
