New issue 27 by ssiid...@gmail.com: Request for installation and use
instructions
http://code.google.com/p/ocaml-extlib/issues/detail?id=27

It would be great if anyone could provide some instructions/tutorial on how
to compile, load and use this library. After much trouble I managed to
build the library, but have no idea how to use it with my standard ocaml
installation. Some questions I also had were:
- Where should it be installed? As in, what is the default location, and
how would it work if I installed it to a custom directory?
- How to load the library in the Ocaml toplevel or in my programs?

Thank you very much.

This is described in README.txt
Nowadays everybody should use `opam install extlib` or `opam install
extlib-compat`.
Loading in toplevel then is `#require "extlib"` and that's it.
Installing to the custom directory instead of using ocamlfind is possible
and doesn't differ from any other ocaml library, but it is not recommended
and you are on your own here.
