	As I note in the README for xbzone, you will need to retrieve
f2c, the Fortran to C translator, from some nearby archive site. One
particular one (I should have noted this in the README ... *bonk*) is
research.att.com. Send mail to

	netlib@research.att.com

with

	send help
	send index for f2c

in the body of the message. This will send you all of the gritty details
on how to retrieve it. f2c contains the two Fortran emulation libraries
in c (libi77.a and libf77.a) as well as the translator. You will need
all of it.
