1. Important files
------------------
README - This README file
CHANGES - List of changes between releases
conglomerate_functions.pl - Replacement file - Generates shading
genflat.pl - Generates info for shading from .info files
gen_makefile.sh - Replacement file - updates to postscript
posterize.pl - Replacement file - generates a final ps file
2. Installing
-------------
This install requires fcgp, which means the target kernel src must be on
the system creating the map.
Download and copy the new files into the fcgp directory, (Note: its always
a good idea to have backups).
Run genflat.pl against your kernel info files
./genflat.pl kernel.info kernel2.info > coverage.dat
Run the make command for the fcgp (Note: this can take a while)
make KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/linux
Update posterize.pl as needed, normally page size, margins, titles.
Most of these settings will be broken out as command line options in the future.
Run posterize.pl this will generate the file poster.ps.
3. Notes and Comments
---------------------
This is a quick and dirty implementation suited for my needs. It does not
perform any of the tiling the original did.
