This is a Linux port of Paul Koonce's PVC 3.0 package for Irix.
(This Linux port also runs on Irix, but is not as well tested
there as Paul's original package.)

In addition to changes facilitating the port, this version uses
part of Bill Schottstaedt's sndlib sound file library to let
PVC read lots of different sound file header types. It still
writes only NeXT/Sun format files (but you can change this
in PVC_LIB/fileio.c to write AIFF or WAV files). It also deals
with byte-ordering transparently.


Installation
------------

Just edit makefile.conf as appropriate for your system. If you
want to install the programs in /usr/local/bin, and you're
compiling on Linux, you shouldn't have to change makefile.conf.
(But have a look at it anyway.)

If you're on SGI, you may want to edit the UTILITIES/Makefile.
(Read that to find out why.)


- To compile, type `make'.

- To install, become root and type `make install'.

- To install stripped binaries to save space, become root and
    type `make install-strip'.

- To uninstall, become root and type `make uninstall'.


happy vocoding...
