Malloc Debug Library
********************

   This file documents the general-usage and the inner-workings of the
memory allocation or "malloc" library it accompanies.

   This malloc library has been designed as a drop in replacement for
the system's malloc, realloc, calloc, free and other memory management
routines.  For more information about their capabilities, do a `man 3
malloc' to read the system's manual pages.

   What is unique about this library is that it contains a number of
powerful debugging facilities including very comprehensive heap testing
and excellent run-time debugging information.  We have found these
capabilities to be superb development tools.

   I can be reached at `<[e-mail]>' with any questions
or general comments.
