### CVS download and build instructions for j3d-core

To build the j3d-core packages, you must checkout the following three CVS repositories:

- j3d-core
- j3d-core-utils
- vecmath

These three top-level directories must be named exactly as shown above and they must be sibling directories. To ensure this, run the cvs checkout command for each of the respositories from the same parent directory. For example:

`cd <cvs-root-dir>`
`cvs checkout vecmath`
`cvs checkout j3d-core`
`cvs checkout j3d-core-utils`

After you have downloaded the three CVS repositories, read the README-FIRST.txt file, then read and follow the instructions in the README-build.html files in all three CVS repositories.

Go to the "CVS client setup" page for instructions on how to access the j3d-core source code from CVS. Click on the "Version Control - CVS" link to browse the j3d-core source code.
