+dvgtk-0.2 is a beta release of a DVI file previewer for Tektronix 4010
+terminal emulators.
+
+dvgtk is derived from the dvgt-3.51 package. The original authors were
+Andrew Trevorrow, Ian Dall, and Geoffrey Tobin.
+
+Installation requires access to web2c-7.0 source tree. An attempt was
+made to integrate dvgtk as a subpackage of the web2c but dvgt is still
+in a very rough shape and does not stand to web2c standards yet. Actually
+it should be rewritten from scratch :-).
+
+Installation instructions are in file INSTALL and description of recent
+modifications is in file NEWS. For a list of architectures on which
+dvgtk was verified to compile see file MACHINES. For original
+instructions and acknowledgments please refer to doc/README.
+
+dvgtk was verified to work with Kermit 3.14, X11R6 xterm and CONEX 7.2.
+The maintainer currently uses CONEX by Erhard Hilbig with a modem
+connection and this package was tested most extensively for this
+configuration. CONEX works well even on low-end PCs and can be found
+for example at:
+
+ ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/simtelnet/msdos/commprog/conex71.zip
+
+The latest version of dvgtk can be found at
+
+ http://mecca.spd.louisville.edu/~tjchol01/software/dvgtk/
+
+Please direct all suggestions and bug reports to Tomasz J. Cholewo
+<t.cholewo@ieee.org>. I will be very grateful for all build reports
+containing the host type and possibly invalid output from the
+compilation process.
