USAGE:

To use the gcvmr library, the gc (garage collector) version of the vmr library, you
need to put libgcvmr.a in an accessible place, such as your current working directory.

You must link your program with -lgcvmr and -lgc, perhaps using -L. if
either is located in the current directory.  Then your program will
automatically collect garbage when needed.

If you are also using malloc() in your program, you should use copy
gc.h to your working directory and put
  #include "gc.h"
with your other include directives.
Then call GC_malloc(...) instead of malloc(...) and call GC_free(...)
instead of free(...).  This will extent garbage collection (and leak
detection) to calls other than mallocvec() and mallocmat() and their
friends.

To get leak detection, you should add
  #include "leak_detector.h" at the top of your source file
and add 
  GC_find_leak = 1;
in main() after all declarations
and put
  CHECK_LEAKS();
before main's return() to get a report of leaked memory.
You can also sprinkle CHECK_LEAKS(); throughout your program to narrow
down where the leaks are coming from.


LIBRARY CREATION:

Compile readfile.c, readIfile.c, readSfile.c, readfileCM.c as specified
in their comment sections, or use the .o files from the non-gc versions.

Compile the special gc versions of vecmat.c and stringvecmat.c as specified
in their comment sections.

Type "source libgcvmr.csh".
