+
+The code is free for anyone to use provided you mention me somewhere - its not
+like its going to cost you anything :-). If you need support you can try
+mailing me at the address above - I can be quite busy but I will try and
+deal with any queries.
+
+Linux
+
+It is built under windows but I have included the various build files needed
+for linux - delete the file "makefile" and use the configure script to
+make a new one for linux. The files needed by autoconf are there anyway
+if that doesn't work. I can't run PD on the linux machine I have got
+access to (only telnet access) so I am not sure about installing it but all the
+stuff should be there.
+
+Windows
+
+There is a VC++ 6 project file included an it builds fine with that. I haven't
+tried anyother tools as yet. However there is a binary version included
+in case you haven't got the compiler.
+
+To install - add mjLib.dll to your pd library path:
+
+ -lib C:\pd\mjLib\mjLib
+
+and copy the contents of doc\mjLib into
+
+ [pd home]\docs\5.reference\mjLib
+
+that should be you done.
+
+General notes
+
+This library will grow a bit - there are a few more objects that I want to
+put into it.
+
+There are currently five objects:
+
+ pin~ - randomly delivers the input signal to either the right or left outlet with a given probability
+ metroplus - allows complex timing bangs to be delivered
+ prob - generates random events with a given probability
+ monorhythm - basic rhythm pattern building blocks that allows polyrhthms to be generated quickly and easily
+ about - delivers a number that is "about" the same as the input number.
