Extracting the software from the Z3950/Prise 2.0 tar tape.

Use tar (we suggest, as a non-superuser) to extract the Z3950/Prise 2.0 distribution from tape - creating and filling the delivery tree in whatever is the current directory when tar is run. Please refer to Installing and Making Z39.50/PRISE 2.0. You should ignore the instructions concerning gunzip and have completed the untaring of the distribution.
