Overview
========
Nix is a package manager, deployment system, and component glue
mechanism.
Prerequisites
=============
* Berkeley DB 4.0.14
* CWI ATerm 2.0
Installation
============
* When building from the Subversion repository, first do:
autoreconf -i
* To build, do:
./configure
make
make install
Note that this will install to /nix, which is the default prefix.
You can specify another prefix, but this is not recommended if you
want to use prebuilt packages from other sources.
