AMarquee is made of two parts, each of which may be installed 
independantly of the other.  The first part, amarquee.library,
is a front-end library for use by Amiga programs that wish 
to act as AMarquee clients.  It may be installed by copying it 
to your LIBS: directory.

The second part, AMarqueed, is the TCP server program that stores
broadcasted information for other Amigas and co-ordinates information
updating and notification.  You only need to install it if you wish
to use your Amiga as an AMarquee server.

To install the AMarquee server for use with AmiTCP, do the following:

1)  Copy the file AMarqueed from the distribution into your 
	amitcp:serv directory.

2)  Add the following line to the end of your amitcp:db/services file:

	AMarquee 2957/tcp
	
3)  Add the following line to the end of your amitcp:db/inetd.conf file:

	AMarquee stream tcp nowait root amitcp:serv/AMarqueed

	Read this note about making AMarqueed resident
	
4)  Re-start AmiTCP.  Your AMarquee server should now be ready to
	accept connections.  Try running one of the included example
	programs to "localhost" to test it out.
