 1.Why PGACCESS ?
 
-First of all because PostgreSQL lacks a graphical interface from within
-you could manage your tables, edit them, define queries, sequences and
-functiones more simple than in psql.
-In Tcl/Tk because it's a powerfull language, and it tooks me only 3 days
-of hard work to get it like you see it.
-It's for free! Probably I should enter here that kind of text that says
-that is GNU-like license or whatsoever.
-Let's say : 
-If PostgreSQL and Linux are for free, so PGACCESS should be.

 You will need Tcl/Tk package, I am using now Tcl 7.6 and Tk 4.2. There
 are some problems running under Tcl/Tk 8.0 but I will soon fix them.
-Also, you will need the PostgreSQL to Tcl interface library. It is
-called libpgtcl.so and because most of the people asked for it, I
-will supply a version compiled for 6.2 along with theese files.
-It is compiled and it's working on my system, a RedHat 4.2 Linux on

+Also, you will need the PostgreSQL to Tcl interface library.  It is
+called libpgtcl and the source is located in the PostgreSQL directory
+/src/interfaces/libpgtcl.  Specifically, you will need a libpgtcl
+library that is 'load'-able from tck/tk.
+
+Under Linux, this is called libpgtcl.so.  You will find a pre-compiled
+copy of it for Linux i386 systems at : http://www.flex.ro/pgaccess. 
 Just copy libpgtcl.so into your system library director (/usr/lib) and
 go for it.
 
 
 3.How to run it?
 
-You run it with the command :
-wish -f pgaccess.tcl
+You run it with the command:

 Another way of loading the PostgreSQL library is running it with pgwish.
 It's a wish compiled with libpgtcl library so it could understand the
-commands for working with PostgreSQL.
-For this, remove the line "load libpgtcl.so" from the source
