==========================

The undermentioned people wrote the code, and the right was abandoned
or transferred to Tama Communications Corporation with legal paper.

The original author is Shigio YAMAGUCHI.

Port to Windows 32 (for Borland C++ Compiler) by Dan Fandrich.
(most of #ifdef _WIN32.)

Port to DJGPP by Jason Hood.
(libutil/is_unixy.[ch] and most of #ifdef __DJGPP__.)

The following improvements by Hideki IWAMOTO.
* INCLUDED FROM index of htags.
* CVS REPOSITORY link of htags.
* Real support of Yacc source code of htags.
* Rewriting parser for assembly language using Yacc(asm_scan.l,asm_parse.y).
* Adding config variable 'langmap' to htags.
* Performance improvement of gtags and htags by decreasing the frequency
  of invoking parser.
* Performance improvement of the incremental updating of gtags by changing
  algorithm.
* Adding the --file filelist option of gtags.
* Essential part of internal sort filter (replacement of gnusort).
* Performance improvement of idset module by using "unsigned long" instead of
  "unsigned int" for bitmask. This is necessary to use 64 bit processor effectively.
