shapetools for DEBIAN
----------------------

All documentation in /usr/share/doc/shapetools.

A first debianized shapeTools package. It should work ...  Most of the
patches to the shape mailing list are applied. These patches should be
reintegrated into the upstream sources, but I believe the authors have
lost interest ...

Some Debian specifics:

- shapeTools is split into Debian packages atfs, atfs-dev,
  shapetools (Binaries) and shapetools-tutorial.

- If an environment variable ATFS_DOMAIN is set, this one is
  taken.

- an AtFS'ized grep-2.0 is included.

On my TODO list.

- add tcl-atfs and python-atfs to the package.

- emacs mode installation.

- how can shared libraries be built, such that the Makefiles are
  usable with shape _and_ make?
