Other than this README update, these are the original files from 1999. This was an online book exchange used on the University of Iowa campus for a few years, with design from Dave Selden. Once in awhile I send out these files to developers I know, as an example of some really old code that I wrote, just for the amusement factor. Using any of this code for any other purpose may be hazardous to your health.

From the original README:

Run install.cgi to setup the BookExchange on your site. It does more than just copy files, so its a good idea to use it instead of trying to move things around yourself.

More information about this product and updated versions can be found at cs.uiowa.edu/~bdeitte/bookexchange

If you have trouble installing or running this program, please check the page above to see if the question has already been answered. If you think you've found a bug, please email me at (not working email address).

I'll try to fix any bugs found as quickly as I can, but am not planning to add features this program. If you'd added anything yourself and like it'd be available to others, please let me know!

This is mostly a repackaging of a book exchange I created for the University of Iowa which can be seen at bookexchange.cs.uiowa.edu
