= Registration Details =

* Name: *Swiss Ephemeris AutoTools*
* System Name:  *swissephauto*
* Type: non-GNU software & documentation
* License: GNU General Public License v2 or later (The authors of the Swiss
Ephemeris have licensed their source under GPLV2+. Unfortunately, they will
also try to sell you a propritary license. This project relies solely on the
GPL. All files created by Swiss Ephemeris AutoTools (this project) are
licensed only by the GPL. It is necessary at times to mention the upstream's
propriatary license at times in order to disassociate my self with it.

Although Swiss Ephemeris AutoTools could conceivably be used anyplace
autotools works, I test only under GNU/Linux.)

==== Description: ====
The Swiss Ephemeris AutoTools replaces the original Swiss Ephemeris build
system, (a GNU Makefile), with an AutoTools build system. All the original .c
and .h files are unchanged. The packager feels not competent to change these.
The original Makefile is replaced with an AutoTools setup. The most you could
say is that Swiss Ephemeris AutoTools is a fork of the Swiss Ephemeris build
system. The purpose of this project is to get the Swiss Ephemeris into a form
where it can be accepted by the GNU/Linux distros.


==== Other Software Required: ====
