-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Goals/features of the package:
-
-- pool can store and retrieve key/value pairs, where a key can be any atom and
- the value can be any list of atoms
-- pool can manage folders. A folder name can be any atom.
-- pool objects can be named and then share their data space
-- clipboard operations are possible in a pool or among several pools
-- file operations can load/save data from disk
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-IMPORTANT INFORMATION for all PD users:
-
-Put the pd-msvc/pool.dll, pd-linux/pool.pd_linux or pd-darwin/pool.pd_darwin file
-into the extra folder of the PD installation, or use a -path or -lib option
-at PD startup to find the pool external.
-
-Put the help-pool.pd file into the doc\5.reference subfolder of your PD installation.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-IMPORTANT INFORMATION for all Max/MSP users:
-
-For Mac OSX put the max-osx/pool.mxd file into the folder
-/Library/Application Support/Cycling '74/externals
-
-For Mac OS9 put the max-os9/pool.mxe file into the externals subfolder of your Max/MSP installation
-
-For Windows put the max-msvc\pool.mxe file into the folder
-C:\program files\common files\Cycling '74\externals (english version)
-
-Put the pool.help file into the max-help folder.

-BUILDING from source
---------------------
-
-You will need the flext C++ layer for PD and Max/MSP externals to compile this.
-See http://grrrr.org/ext/flext
-Download, install and compile the package.
-Afterwards you can proceed with building this external.
-
-
-pd/Max - Windows - Microsoft Visual C, Borland C++, MinGW:
-----------------------------------------------------------
-Start a command shell with your eventual build environment
-(e.g. run vcvars32.bat for Microsoft Visual Studio)
-
-then run
- ..\flext\build.bat
-(you would have to substitute ..\flext with the respective path to the flext package)
-
-
-pd/Max - OSX/Linux - GCC:
--------------------------
-From a shell run
-bash ../flext/build.sh
-(you would have to substitute ../flext with the respective path to the flext package)
-
