A selection of tools from different packages used to build Mozilla. These tools include CVS, nsinstall, GNU bash, GNU Shell utilities, GNU text utilities, GNU file utilities, GNU diff, GNU grep, GNU awk, GNU m4, GNU make (with file-handle fix), GNU sed, and GNU regex.

"I. ***** REQUIREMENTS *****

A standard Unix like build environment:

- sh compatible shell (ksh, bash, ash, but tested only with pdksh 5.2.14) - GNU file utilities (make sure that install.exe from the file utilities is in front of your PATH before X:\OS2\INSTALL\INSTALL.EXE.
