This is GNU ecc library and sample program that make use of the library.
The library implements a 3-byte error correcting encoder/decoder based
on the Reed-Solomon (255, 249) code.  See the manpage on ``ecc''.

See the file NEWS for a list of major changes in the current release.

See the file INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions.
After successful compilation, do 'make check' to run a small test
suite.  Please investigate and report the problem if the test fails.

``ecc'' recognizes the `--version' option.  When reporting bugs, please
include in the subject line both the word ``ecc'' and the version number.

Mail suggestions and bug reports for these programs to
bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu.
