#	BLACS directory
#	=====
#	This directory contains machine-specific versions of the
#       BLACS ( Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms ).  The
#       platforms currently supported are:
#          MPI,
#          PVM,
#          HP Exemplar (MPI),
#          IBM SP series (MPL),
#          Intel series (NX),
#          SGI Origin 2000 (MPI).
