               FASTLINK Portability information for Linux


Linux is a freely available implementation of UNIX for PC's. Linux
comes with the gcc compiler. According to Xaoli Xie, Shriram
Krishnamurthy, and Kurt Hornik, the main programs in FASTLINK
port fine to Linux. No change in the Makefile is needed.

Source code and executables for the LINKAGE auxiliary programs
lcp, lrp, lsp, and makeped is available on
fastlink.nih.gov under pub/staff/schaffer/linux-aux.

Please report any problems to me at schaffer@helix.nih.gov
