 Introduction
   
   Stan is a small console application that works on all Unix systems. It is
   able to generate several statisical information of a stream. A stream can
   be either standard input or given files. For example stan can be used in
   order to analyse encrypted data or to measure the quality of a pseudo
   random number generator, but there are probably houndreds of more
   situation when stan comes handy.
   
   Stan supports three types of analysing general statistics, pattern
   statistics and bit statistics. By choosing intelligent values for each
   statistic, stan can give amazing results about a stream and is fun
   working with.
               
 Installation 
   
   If you obtained the source of stan, follow the rules below in
   order to compile stan on your system. Stan is written in plain ANSI C,
   therefore it should compile on all modern UNIX systems. The only thing
   needed is the math library libm which is part of all UNIX systems as far
   as we know.
   
     $ zcat stan-0.2.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
     $ cd stan-0.2
     $ ./configure
     $ make
     $ make install
   
   You may pass optional parameters to the configure script, currently there
   is only support for the switch --with-debug that enables debug
   information. On some UNIX system it is necessary to use GNU make for the
   compilation process because the native make isn't able to correctly
   interpret the automatically generated Makefiles of automake.  Stan has
   been compiled and tested on the following UNIX system: RedHat Linux 7.0,
   Solaris 8, OpenBSD 2.8 and IRIX 6.2.

 Usage

   The man page stan(1) should be sufficient for getting all information
   about all command line options of stan.
