The real documentation containing build and installation instructions is in the docs subdirectory, refer to this if you have any problems.
Yow will need gnu make, X and gcc to build anything, MAKE=gnu-make is assumed here. Type
make docs
to build the documentation in dvi and html format - depending on whatever formatting software is installed locally. Texi2html is recommended to build the docs, you may get it from
http://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/~obachman/Texi2html/
although it should be bundled with most distributions.
View the documentation either with
xdvi docs/uqlx
$BROWSER docs/uqlx_toc.html
If you do not have the necessary software to build the documentation files or downloaded the package without documentation, very old version of the HTML documentation can be found at : http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/2602/uqlx_main.html
Short instructions for building it:
on Linux:
./MK.all make install
make config make make install

Windows and Mac versions are neither compiled nor tested by me. I would be happy to hear reports from exotic architectures.
See file COPYRIGHT. If you didn't receive it, email
Do not use any part of UQLX for whichever purpose without reading and acknowledging the COPYRIGHT.
gcc-4.0.2 has been tested and works well.
gcc-3.[123] on all architectures with enabled global registers optimisation (anything except x86) has known problems with global register variables, see PR 7871. UQLX uses a workaround, the appended patch fixes gcc.
On ShoeString Linux use gcc2723 or gcc303 to compile.
config script attempts to guess affected compilers and disables the optimisation by default (-DBROKEN_GREGS), this will result in slightly slower code. gcc-3.4 and later do not suffer from this bug.
