Debug Malloc Library
********************

   Version 4.3.0 - November 1999

   The debug memory allocation or "dmalloc" library has been designed
as a drop in replacement for the system's `malloc', `realloc',
`calloc', `free' and other memory management routines while providing
powerful debugging facilities configurable at runtime.  These
facilities include such things as memory-leak tracking, fence-post write
detection, file/line number reporting, and general logging of
statistics.

   The library is reasonably portable having been run successfully on at
least the following operating systems: AIX, BSD/OS, DG/UX, FreeBSD,
HPUX, Irix, Linux, MS-DOG, NeXT, OSF, SCO, Solaris, SunOS, Ultrix,
Unixware, Windoze and even Unicos on a Cray Y-MP.  It also provides
support for the debugging of threaded programs.  *Note Using With
Threads::.

   The package includes the library, configuration scripts, debug
utility application, test program, and documentation.  Online
documentation as well as the full source is available at URL
`http://www.dmalloc.com/'.  Details on the library's mailing list are
available there as well.

   My contact information is available on the web page.  I can be
reached with any questions or feedback.  Please include the version
number of the library that you are using as well as your machine and
operating system types.
