This is an alpha version of IMM 3.5. This release is not compatible with older
version of imm .. so make sure older releases are not within your executeable path.
It has been designed to efficiently replicate files/file directories 
using a reliable dissemination protocol framework and provide archiving 
and post processing features.  The default mode of operation is for imm
to receive and display compressed imagery files (e.g., jpg,gif) using 
xv or xloadimage as a post processor.

This contents of this binary distribution include the following executables:
imm
immserv


Install the binaries in an appropriate executable directory 
(e.g., /usr/local/bin) and allow for appropriate execute priveleges.

This release includes an sdr plug-in, named sdr2.plugin.S53.image.imm,
which must be installed to participate in MBone alpha testing of imm sessions.
Usually in a directory called ~home/.sdr/plugins to be found by sdr.
See the sdr help pages for information on installing plugins.

imm and immserv can be launched independently with appropriate command 
line options, but this is not essential knowledge for sdr operation.
See imm_readme.txt for more information on options if interested.

Have fun!
