+>> ADODB Library for PHP4
+
+(c) 2000-2004 John Lim (jlim@natsoft.com.my)
+
+Released under both BSD and GNU Lesser GPL library license.
+This means you can use it in proprietary products.
+
+
+>> Introduction
+
+PHP's database access functions are not standardised. This creates a
+need for a database class library to hide the differences between the
+different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can easily
+switch databases.
+
+We currently support MySQL, Interbase, Sybase, PostgreSQL, Oracle,
+Microsoft SQL server, Foxpro ODBC, Access ODBC, Informix, DB2,
+Sybase SQL Anywhere, generic ODBC and Microsoft's ADO.
+
+We hope more people will contribute drivers to support other databases.
+
+
+>> Documentation and Examples
+
+Refer to the adodb/docs directory for full documentation and examples.
+There is also a tutorial tute.htm that contrasts ADODB code with
+mysql code.
+
+
+>>> Files
+Adodb.inc.php is the main file. You need to include only this file.
+
+Adodb-*.inc.php are the database specific driver code.
+
+Test.php contains a list of test commands to exercise the class library.
+
+Adodb-session.php is the PHP4 session handling code.
+
+Testdatabases.inc.php contains the list of databases to apply the tests on.
+
+Benchmark.php is a simple benchmark to test the throughput of a simple SELECT
+statement for databases described in testdatabases.inc.php. The benchmark
+tables are created in test.php.
+
+readme.htm is the main documentation.
+
+tute.htm is the tutorial.
