Tkdm Installation
-----------------

1. Make sure that UnixODBC is installed and the odbcbridge server is
   running correctly.

2. Make sure that Perl/Tk is installed correctly.

3. Create the $HOME/.odbclogins file, following the pattern of
   the Web datamanager's odbclogins file in the datamanager
   subdirectory.  (This will all have to be changed to MD5 or 
   some other form of authentican, soon.  Make sure that the 
   permissions of .odbclogins is set correctly (i.e., so that 
   it isn't world readable).   The sample .odbclogins file, 
   named dot-odbclogins, provides some example entries.

4. Make sure that the path to the perl intererpeter on the first 
   line of the tkdm script is correct.  The path to the perl 
   interpreter is the   output of the command:   "which perl".  If 
   the script does not have the correct pathname of the perl 
   interpreter on your system, you will recieve errors like:

     $ bash: tkdm: command not found

   when you try to run the program.

5. Install the program and manual page, if you didn't install it
   when you installed UnixODBC.pm:

     $ perl Makefile.PL
     $ make
     $ su
     # make install   

For a description of how to use tkdm, refer to the manual page:
type "man tkdm."
