	How to compile MAD-FCL in Linux:

	The MAD-FCL archive contains a Makefile to compile the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the
        MAD-SDPLIB libraries and the MAD-FLUTE application. Please note that the Makefile is defined
        for the GNU make.

	Only write (g)make in the top directory, and all directories are scanned through and
	the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE application
        are compiled.

	The MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries are created to the lib
        directory, and the MAD-FLUTE application is created to the bin directory.
	
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	How to compile MAD-FCL in Windows:

	The MAD-FCL archive contains a Microsoft Visual Studio .NET solution file (mad_fcl.sln)
	to compile the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE
        application.

	First start the Microsoft Visual Studio .NET and open the MAD-FCL solution, and then use
	Build menu (Build Solution) to create the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB
        libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE application. Project dependencies are set so everything should
        go automatically.

	The MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries are created to the lib\win32
        directory, and the MAD-FLUTE application is created to the bin\win32 directory.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	How to use:

	Go to the bin directory in Linux or the bin/win32 directory in Windows and write ./flute -h
        or flute -h respectively to see what are possible parameters and use cases.
