       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.epm.ornl.gov/pvm).

You must also set the environment variables

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

Remember to give yourself write permission to the PVM_ROOT
directory in order to install PERL-PVM.

For a correct installation you will also need perl5.002
or greater.

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

       tar xvf Pvm-1.0.tar
       cd Pvm-1.0

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.
