The distribution contains a patch to build Objective Label 2.04 from Objective Caml 2.04, the sources of LablTk41, and LablBrowser, a source and compiled interface browser allowing to search the library by path, name and type, or shorter, a programming environment. Everything was checked to work on Digital Unix 4.0A, SPARC/SunOS4.1.4, SPARC/Solaris2.6, i386/FreeBSD2.2.8, i386/Solaris2.5.1, SGI/IRIX6.3 and LUNA/DGUX(SVR4.3).
LablBrowser may also be compiled to use the O'Caml interface format, using OCamlBrowser.
