Description
-----------

libstatgrab is a library for accessing information from the system
for statistical purposes. It could be used for software that monitors
the system for alerting or graphing purposes.

Building and Installation
-------------------------

After downloading and extracting libstatgrab, configure and build as
follows;

./configure
make

Then install as root;

make install

There are, of course, the usual GNU-style configure options;

  --prefix=PREFIX

For more documentation on the installation process, please read the
INSTALL document.

Cygwin Notes
------------

If you have installed libncurses-devel but the configure script can't
find ncurses.h, you've most likely hit a bug in the cygwin package. To
fix this run: /etc/postinstall/libncurses-devel.sh.done

Problems?
---------

Please let us know if you have any problems - support@i-scream.org.

If you find a bug, help us to fix it by sending details to
bugs@i-scream.org. If you have a patch, please send it too.

Thank-you for using i-scream software.

Log Message:	Add support for cygwin. This is a bit limited, there's a few things that can't be retrieved on cygwin such as load averages, diskio, network io, and process stats. The package compiles and runs, and both saidar and statgrab work. Taken from a patch submitted by Ron Arts <raarts@netland.nl>. Thanks Ron!
