if (Your system == FreeBSD) {
	You are lucky!
	You need not to do procedure "1. Preparation for generic UNIX".

	switch (version) {
	case 2.0.5R:
	case 2.1.0R:
	case 2.1.5R:
		There is no problem.
		break;
	case 2.1.6R:
	case 2.1.7R:
		I don't know. But it seems same with 2.1.5R.
		break;
	case 2.2.1R:
		It is OK. But your native nvi is version 1.71.
		Use 1.79 nvi available on the Internet.
		break;
	case 2.2.2R:
	case 2.2.5R:
		Your system inlucdes GLOBAL 1.9. You can overwrite it
		with this 2.2 package.
		But skip procedure "3. Extended vi (OPTIONAL)", because
		your /usr/bin/nvi is already extended nvi for GLOBAL.
		break;
	default:
		I don't know. But it seems to be little problem.
	}
} else {
	You may some error messages to make GLOBAL.
	But it seems not so difficult to clear it. If you make a patch for it,
	please let me know. I would like to include your patch into new
	version of GLOBAL.

	Thank you in advance.

Install procedure
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

0. Extracting

	% tar xzvf global-XXX.tar.gz
	% cd global-XXX

	(XXX is version number.)

1. Preparation for generic UNIX

   If you are a FreeBSD (all version) user, nothing to do here.
   Please go to "2. GLOBAL basic".

   Otherwise, you must install following items before you install GLOBAL.

   a) Generic makefile

      This package includes generic makefile. Please do the followings.

	% make -f Makefile.generic gen
	% vi Makefile		<- check install directories (BINDIR, MANDIR)

   b) BSD db library version 1.85

      If you don't have it, you can fetch it from this site.

	http://mongoose.bostic.com/db/packages/db.1.85.tar.gz

   c) PERL version 4 or later

      If you don't have it, you can fetch it from this site.

	ftp://ftp.cis.ufl.edu/pub/perl/CPAN/src/5.0/latest.tar.gz

   d) Rewrite some files

      If you install GLOBAL into other than /usr/bin, you need rewrite
      hard coded path in a program. You can find the place by this command.

	% grep '/usr/bin/global' */*.pl

      If you install perl to other than /usr/bin, please rewrite hard coded
      path in some programs. You can find the places by this command.
 
	% grep '/usr/bin/perl' */*.pl

   e) POSIX regular expression (extension) library

      If you don't have it, you can use GNU's regex library.

   f) Some UNIX tools

      Find(1), sed(1), sort(1) are needed.
      If your environment is UNIX, you have them.

2. GLOBAL basic (NEEDED)

   	% make
   	# make install

3. Extended vi (OPTIONAL)

   GLOBAL supports two version of nvi.
   There is a little defference in behavior between them when a number of
   functions located. (please see 'README'.)
   Version 1.34 nvi is included by FreeBSD 2.0.5R, 2.1.0R and 2.1.5R.
   Version 1.79 nvi is available on

	ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/4bsd/nvi-1.79.tar.gz.

   If you don't have nvi-1.34, use nvi-1.79.

   If you use version 1.34 nvi which is a native command in FreeBSD 2.0.5R,
   2.1.0R or 2.1.5R then

	% cp -r /usr/src/usr.bin/vi vi		<- version 1.34 of nex/nvi
	% cd vi
	% patch -p < ../nvi-1.34.diff
	% make
	# make install

   else if you use version 1.79 nvi which is the latest version then
   fetch from ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/4bsd/nvi-1.79.tar.gz and

	% tar xzvf nvi-1.79.tar.gz
	% cd nvi-1.79
	% patch -p < ../nvi-1.79.diff
	% cd build
	% ./configure
	% make
	# make install

        Caution: If you use FreeBSD 2.2.2R or later, your nvi is already
		extended vi. Don't patch with nvi-1.79.diff.

   else we have no patch for it.

4. Extended emacs (OPTIONAL)

   The version of Emacs supported by GLOBAL is GNU Emacs 19.28, 19.34 or
   Mule 2.3 (= Emacs 19.28). Other emacs version seems to work well,
   but I don't confirm it.

   You can get it from 

	Emacs 19.34b:
		ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/emacs-19.34b.tar.gz
	Mule 2.3:
		ftp://ftp.cs.buffalo.edu/pub/mule/mule-2.3.tar.gz

   If you are a FreeBSD user, install it from 'package' (see pkg_add(1)).

   If you have installed it then copy gtags.el in this package to the emacs
   lisp library directory or place the file in a directory
   (for example "~/lisp") and write $HOME/.emacs like this.

	+-----------------------------------------------
	|(setq load-path (cons "~/lisp" load-path))

5. Gozilla (OPTIONAL)

   You need X(1) to install gozilla.

	% cd gozilla
	% xmkmf
	% make
	# make install
	# make install.man

Good luck!
