Introduction:
Rfcref is a preprocessor for formatting RFC references.

This software is OSI Certified Open Source Software.
OSI Certified is a certification mark of the Open Source Initiative.

The software is distributed under the zlib/libpng license; see the file
LICENSE included with the distribution.

Prerequisites:
Rfcref uses awk. Wget is used to retrieve current data files.

Configuration:
Edit the lines near the top of the makefile to configure for local conditions.
See the comments in the makefile for details.  When you have finished editing
the makefile, run make.  You should end up with an executable script named
rfcref.  Make install installs the executable script and data files.

If no files are specified on the command line, standard input is read.
If multiple files are specified, the results will be concatenated on stdout,

Output:
Output is intended to be processed with rfc macros for formatting an RFC or
Internet Draft document.

Detailed documentation is available in the files rfcref.1 and rfcref.pdf.
