README.devel
===========================
Chapel developer's file map
===========================

The README and README.files files in this directory are intended for
the end-user whose directory and file structure differs somewhat from
what a developer would see in their git tree.  This file is meant to
provide similar information as README.files for developers, and to map
between the developer directory structure and the release directory
structure.

The following files/directories are ones that are the same and in the
same place for developers and end users.  See README.files for a
description:

The following files/directories in the release are based on those in
the git tree, but not exactly the same:

  doc/      : this directory is built from a
              combination of the doc/ directory and
              some documents that are generated by the 'make docs' script,
              when building the html documentation.

  examples/ : for the end user, this directory is taken wholesale
              from test/release/examples in the developer hierarchy
              (with outdated subdirectories pruned).

  man/ :      for the developer, this directory contains the sources
              for our man page as well as for the man page itself, built
              using "make man" from the top-level directory.  For
              users, this directory only contains the resulting man
              page structure.



The following files/directories are for developers only:

  README.devel     : this file
  test/            : the Chapel testing system in all its glory
