Q: Huh?  What are all these files about?  All I want is one program!

A: You only need one file to install clpbar on your computer.  Which one you
   download depends on the computer you're using and whether or not you intend
   to compile bar yourself or use one of the pre-built packages:

  bar-*.i386.rpm
    This file is a pre-built package for a 32-bit RedHat-based Linux system.

  bar-*.x86_64.rpm
    This file is a pre-built package for a 64-bit RedHat-based Linux system.

  bar_*_i386.deb
    This file is a pre-built package for a 32-bit Debian-based Linux system.

  bar_*_amd64.deb
    This file is a pre-built package for a 64-bit Debian-based Linux system.

  bar-*-ChangeLog
    This file is a text file listing the changes that were made between each
    successive version.  You don't need this file, but it is here for your 
    information.

  bar-*-man.txt
    This file is the manual page for bar.  You don't need this file, but it is
    here for your information.

  bar_*.tar.gz
    This file contains the source code should you want to build bar yourself.
    Since the developer can only provide pre-built packages for RedHat- and
    Debian-based Linux systems, if you run something else then you will need
    this file and a C compiler.

  bar_*.dsc
    This file is a Debian source package description file.  If you don't know
    what this is, then you probably don't need it.

  bar-*_i686.tgz
    This file is a tar file containing a pre-built 32-bit binary.  If you
    untar it in your root directory you will get the following files:
      ./
      ./usr/
      ./usr/share/
      ./usr/share/man/
      ./usr/share/man/man1/
      ./usr/share/man/man1/bar.1.gz
      ./usr/share/doc/
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/copyright
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/changelog.gz
      ./usr/bin/
      ./usr/bin/bar

  bar-*_x86_64.tgz
    This file is a tar file containing a pre-built 64-bit binary.  If you
    untar it in your root directory you will get the following files:
      ./
      ./usr/
      ./usr/share/
      ./usr/share/man/
      ./usr/share/man/man1/
      ./usr/share/man/man1/bar.1.gz
      ./usr/share/doc/
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/changelog.gz
      ./usr/share/doc/bar/copyright
      ./usr/bin/
      ./usr/bin/bar

Q: 32-bit?  64-bit?  How do I know what I'm running?

A: A comprehensive answer is outside the scope of this document since the
   developer only has access to Linux systems.  But for Linux, you can find
   out by typing the following command on the command line:
   
     uname -m

   If you see x86_64, then you're running a 64-bit OS.
   If you see i686, i386, or some other i*86, then you are 32-bit.
   If you see something else entirely then you are on your own!  :(
