You are in the directory FlapBase.  It contains

   1. @flap: A directory containing the class methods for Flap.

   2. doc: A directory containing a pdf file describing
      Flap and its capabilities.

   3. examples: A directory containing three m-files illustrating
      the use of Flap.

   4. Public functions and scripts: Use the Matlab help command
      to find out about these.

To install flap, create a path to this directory.  This can be
done using the addpath command.  For example,

>> addpath /fs/thales/stewart/matlab/FlapBase

You can put this command in a startup file, so that it is executed
automatically when you invoke matlab.

This is a preliminary release of the Flap package.  Please report
problems and suggestions for improvement to

    stewart@cs.umd.edu

You may use and modify Flap freely.  However, please respect the
integrity of the contents of the FlapBase directory and its
subdirectories.  If you want to make additions, create a MyFlapBase
directory with an @flap subdirectory and work there.  Of course, you
will have to add a path to MyFlapBase.

If you generate any interesting examples using Flap, I would
appreciate your sending them to me.  I will edit such contributions
and place them in the examples directory for distribution.
