 IBM VisualAge C/C++ for OS/2\r
 ============================\r
 \r
-To build Python for OS/2, change into ./os2vacpp and issue an\r
-'NMAKE' command.  This will build a PyCore15.dll containing the\r
-set of Python modules listed in config.c and a small Python.exe\r
-to start the interpreter.\r
-\r
-During the build process you will see a couple of harmless warnings:\r
-\r
-  From the C Compiler, "No function prototype given for XXX", which\r
-  comes from the use of K&R parameters within Python for portability.\r
-\r
-  From the ILIB librarian, "Module Not Found (XXX)", which comes\r
-  from its attempt to perform the (-+) operation, which removes and\r
-  then adds a .OBJ to the library.  The first time a build is done,\r
-  it obviously cannot remove what is not yet built.\r
-\r
-This build includes support for most Python functionality as well\r
-as TCP/IP sockets.  It omits the Posix ability to 'fork' a process\r
-but supports threads using OS/2 native capabilities.  I have tried\r
-to support everything possible, even popen() to run a child process\r
-and communicate with it via a pipe.\r
-\r
-With respect to the environment variables for Python, I use the\r
-following setup:\r
-\r
-    Set PYTHONHOME=E:\Tau\Projects\Python\r
-    Set PYTHONPATH=.;E:\Tau\Projects\Python\Lib; \\r
-                     E:\Tau\Projects\Python\Lib\plat-win\r
-\r
-If you have questions or problems specifically with the VAC++ port\r
-of Python, please contact me at:\r
-\r
-    Jeff Rush <jrush@summit-research.com>.\r
-\r
-I support no other platform but OS/2 (and eventually AmigaDOS).\r
-\r
+See os2vacpp/readme.txt.  This platform is supported by Jeff Rush.\r
