Quick Install:

configure to your local setup (have a look at):
	./configure --help (or ./conf-tin)

check your local setup in:
	include/autoconf.h

compile with:
	make build (or cd src && make)

install with:
	make install

Install and use at your own risk.

For a more detailed description of all the configure options read
doc/INSTALL.

Note that tin requires a valid fully qualified domain name for the host
you are running tin on. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A HOST NAME WITH A VALID DOMAIN
GO AND GET ONE AND CONFIGURE YOUR HOST -- NOW! (This will prevent problems
with other software, too.) Otherwise users may get "Invalid Sender" error
messages and won't be able to post using the internal inews.

As the included pcre library is slightly outdated linking against a newer
version is recommended (configure --with-pcre or even --with-pcre2-config ;
see doc/INSTALL for details).
