			  Weblint, Version 1.9.3

	THIS IS AN EARLY RELEASE OF WHAT WILL BE WEBLINT 2.0.
	AT THE MOMENT IT PROVIDES A SUBSET OF THE FINAL FUNCTIONALITY,
	AND DOESN'T SUPPORT ALL FEATURES INCLUDED IN WEBLINT 1.020.

Weblint is now broken down into a number of perl modules:

	Weblint			- provides the "weblint engine"
	Weblint::HTML::HTML4	- encapsulation of messages
	Weblint::Messages	- encapsulation of messages
	Weblint::Constants	- constants used in the different modules
	Weblint::Test		- test harness

Weblint implements just about all of the warnings from 1.020, and supports
HTML 4.0 (and HTML 4.0 only). There are one or two features from 1.020
which aren't currently available. Most will be added before it's called
version 2.

The "weblint" script is now pretty much a wrapper around the Weblint module.
The following things aren't implemented in the weblint script at the moment:

	* checking of links (will be left for a separate program)
	* check URLs (using LWP)
	* Netscape & Microsoft extensions (do they have any these days?)

The distribution also includes weblint-cgi:

	* first cut at a web-based interface to weblint
	* requires LWP
	* doesn't have the overhead of external processes
	* this is a very early version

To install this you should just have to do:

	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test
	make install

The weblint-cgi script won't be installed.

Please let me know if any tests fail.

I'm using Perl 5.005_02.
