This note is basically just a placeholder. The real documentation is located online at the HylaFAX home page:
You will find a subset of the online documentation in the html subdirectory. Beware however that timely information is usually more up to date online than in the materials in the html directory. You can view the HTML documentation in place and/or configure it for local installation through the configure script.

HylaFAX Mailing List and Other Final Words (where to send bugs)
The basic procedure is:
Please note that unless you are sending me a bug *fix* to this software sending mail directly to me is a waste of your time. The flexfax mailing list (described below) is the place to send your comments and problems. The -request administrative alias (again, see below) is the place to send administrative requests.
Finally, note that this software is called ``HylaFAX'', not ``Hylafax'', ``hylafax'', and certainly not ``FlexFAX'' (the old name which someone else has a copyright on). If you want to refer to this software use ``HylaFAX (tm)'' and be sure to honor the Silicon Graphics trademark.

The regular expression support is based on Henry Spencer's POSIX 1003.2 compliant regex package that has ``Copyright 1992, 1993, 1994 Henry Spencer. All rights reserved.'' Consult regex/COPYRIGHT for the full copyright notice associated with this software.
The zlib package used in the client-server protocol is copyright 1995-1996 Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler. Consult the file zlib/README for more information on the package.
The code to read PCF fonts is distantly related to the X11R5 code that is ``Copyright 1990 Massachusetts Institute of Technology''; consult faxd/PCFFont.c++ for the full copyright notice.
The textfmt program is distantly related to the lptops program written by Nelson Beebe; there was no copyright notice on the version of the code that textfmt grew out of.
The config.guess and config.sub scripts are part of the GNU autoconf package and covered by the GNU Public License (GPL). Several ideas in the configure script are directly "borrowed" from autoconf (and I have tried to maintain as much compatibility as possible).
The PCF font etc/lutRS18.pcf included for use with tag lines is a compiled version of a LucidaTypewriter font that was contributed to X11 by Bigelow & Holmes. Redistribution of this font requires inclusion of this copyright notice:

- what version you have (see "How to tell which version you have" above),
- what system you're running on, and,
- if the problem is modem-related, identify it and the firmware rev
For example: "HylaFAX v3.0beta99 under Solaris 2.3 with gcc 2.6.3;
ZyXEL 1496E with 6.11a firmware."
If you find the flexfax mailing list to have too much traffic for you,
there is also an announcements-only mailing list called flexfax-announce.
This can be subscribed to by sending mail flexfax-announce-request@sgi.com;
include the single line "subscribe" in the body of the message. Note
that there is no need to subscribe to both mailing lists; postings to
the announcement list are automatically fed to the normal flexfax list.
