        Oct. 26, 2006 Travis Whitton <tinymountain at gmail dot com>

APLoader is a front-end to the Postgresql COPY command written in Ruby. 
Features include: fault tolerance, a progress meter, failed batch logs, 
minimal requirements, a programmable API, and excellent performance.

[Requirements]
APLoader has been designed with the intent of keeping requirements as
low as possible. The only third-party package currently required is
the ruby postgres library, which is available here.

http://ruby.scripting.ca/postgres/

APLoader also uses optparse, which is included in Ruby's stdlib.

[How to install]
1. su to root
2. ruby setup.rb

to install in an alternate location
3. ruby setup.rb all --prefix=/some/other/location
