7You can make a test program, hash test, by issuing the command, "make
8hashtest".  The hashtest runs slow because printing to the terminal is
9slow, but also because it starts out with a very small capacity so as
10to exercise the resizing parts of hashtbl.  You'd normally start with
11a guesstimate of the capacity you'll really need.
12
13Use libhashtbl in your programs by including "hashtbl.h", calling the
14functions prototyped in hashtbl.h, and linking with "-lhashtbl".  The
15library has to be in the places the compiler looks.
16
17You can run "make install" to make libhashtbl available on your
18system.  You can also tell the compiler where to look with an option
19(e.g., "-L/my/dir" for gcc.  See your compiler's docs).
