>Description:
DESCRIPTION
This is the old version of the config utility. It understands the old
autoconfiguration scheme used on the HP300, i386, DECstation, and deriva-
tive platforms. The new version of config is used with the SPARC plat-
form. Only the version of config applicable to the architecture that you
are running will be installed on your machine.
This really needs to be updated with about 20 years or moved to a history
section somewhere.
