+GOALS/FEATURES:
+===============
+
+VASP is a package for PD or MaxMSP consisting of a number of externals extending
+these systems with functions for non-realtime array-based audio data processing.
+VASP is capable of working in the background, therefore not influencing eventual
+dsp signal processing.
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+USAGE:
+======
+
+IMPORTANT INFORMATION for all PD users:
+---------------------------------------
+
+For VASP and its documentation to work properly, you have to specify a
+PD command line like
+
+Linux/OSX: pd -path /usr/local/lib/pd/extra/vasp/pd -lib vasp/vasp
+Windows: pd -path c:\audio\pd\extra\vasp\pd -lib vasp\vasp
+
+
+The main help file "VASP-HELP.pd" resides in the "pd" sub-folder along with some
+handy abstractions. Every help file is accessible from VASP-HELP.PD and vice versa.
+
+
+IMPORTANT INFORMATION for all MaxMSP users:
+-------------------------------------------
+
+It is advisable to put the vasp object library file into the "max-startup" folder.
+Hence it will be loaded at Max startup.
+If you want alternatively to load the vasp library on demand,
+create a "vasp" object somewhere. The library is then loaded.
+
+If existent, the "max-help" folder should be put into the "max-help" folder of Max/MSP
+and be renamed to "vasp".
+
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+COMPILATION:
+============
+
+You will need the flext C++ layer for PD and Max/MSP externals.
+see http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/ext/flext
+
+
+The package should at least compile (and is tested) with the following compilers:
+
+- PD @ Windows:
+o Microsoft Visual C++ 6: use vasp.dsp or edit "config-pd-msvc.txt" and run "sh build-pd-msvc.sh"
+
+- PD @ linux:
+o GCC: edit "config-pd-linux.txt" and run "sh build-pd-linux.sh"
+
+- PD @ MacOSX:
+o GCC: edit "config-pd-darwin.txt" and run "sh build-pd-darwin.sh"
+
+- Max/MSP @ MacOS9:
+o Metrowerks CodeWarrior V6: edit vasp.cw project and build it
+
+
