PERL-PVM
--------

This is a perl extension for the parallel virtual machine
(PVM) message-passing system.   Before you begin installation
you must have already installed PVM (the most recent version of
PVM may be found at http://www.csm.ornl.gov/pvm/).

You must also set the environment variables

       setenv PVM_ROOT <pvm root directory>
       setenv PVM_ARCH `$PVM_ROOT/lib/pvmgetarch`

For a correct installation you will also need perl5.005
or greater.

Once all the preliminaries have been done, the installation
sequence is as follows:

       tar xvf Parallel-Pvm-1.4.0.tar
       cd Parallel-Pvm-1.4.0

Have a look into Makefile.PL to see if you have to make any
changes.  Afterwhich do

       perl5 Makefile.PL
       make
       make test
       make install

Please read the man page, ie.

       perldoc Parallel::Pvm

Any questions, critisims or suggestions are welcome.
