NAME
    Kite - collection of modules useful in Kite design and
    construction.

DESCRIPTION
    The Kite::* modules are a tentative step towards a collection of
    Perl modules and scripts of general use in kite design and
    construction.

OBTAINING AND INSTALLING THE Kite::* MODULES
    The Kite::* module bundle is available from CPAN as:

        /authors/id/ABW/Kite-<version>.tar.gz

    e.g.

        http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/ABW/Kite-0.01.tar.gz

    See http://www.cpan.org/ for a full list of CPAN sites.

    Unpack the archive to create an installation directory.
    Something like this:

        zcat Kite-0.01.tar.gz | tar xvf -

    'cd' into that directory, make, test and install the modules:

        cd Kite-0.01
        perl Makefile.PL
        make
        make test
        make install

    NOTE: on Win32 systems, Microsoft's 'nmake', available from
    http://www.microsoft.com/ appears to be a suitable replacement
    for 'make'.

    The 'make install' will install the module on your system. You
    may need administrator privileges to perform this task. If you
    install the module in a local directory (for example, by
    executing "perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/lib" in the above - see
    'perldoc ExtUtils::MakeMaker' for full details), you will need
    to ensure that the PERL5LIB environment variable is set to
    include the location, or add a line to your scripts explicitly
    naming the library location:

        use lib '/local/path/to/lib';

MODULES
    The following modules and script comprise the Kite bundle.

  Kite

    Front-end for the Kite::* modules. Currently just a placeholder
    for documentation and a bundle version number.

  Kite::Base

    Base class implementing common functionality such as error
    reporting.

  Kite::Profile

    Module defining an object class used to represent and manipulate
    2D profiles. See 'perldoc Kite::Profile'.

  okprof

    Utility script providing a user interface to the Kite::Profile
    module. Allows 2D profiles to be loaded and manipulated via
    simple commands. See 'perldoc okprof' or 'okprof -h'.
