Supplemental:
This is a multithread package which is compatible with the standard 
POSIX1003.4a.  The programs were tested to work correctly on my machine.

  This thread libray was written by Zhang Xiangyang last December.  At 
that time he only followed the POSIX1003.4a standard.  At moment many
new standard concerning the thread is distributed.  Any incomptibility 
with the new standard can be possible.

  The package contains following directory:

	inc : public header file that thread program should use   
	lib : the library the program should make use of.
	obj : the object file for the thread
	src : the source code and head file for the thread library
	tools: the tools or source code which used to test the 
               QNX  environment.
	tst: the test tools which used to test the thread package.

  This the the version 2 package.  The version 1.0 contains several bugs.  
It has been solved on the version 2.0.

  Here I make it public in the hope that it can be useful for the other
persons.  But I do not gurantee there is no potential bugs in it.  In no
event should the author assume the reponsibility for any direct, indirect, 
special, exemplary or consequential damage.  But any problem can be consulted.
