+Installing the build system
+
+  To install the build system you can say
+
+  $ make install
+
+  in the root directory of the source distribution. If you want to
+  install it to a different location (default is /usr/local) you
+  can say
+
+  $ make install_prefix=/usr install
+
+  Note that you need to install the build runtime into a place where
+  `make' will look by default (normally /usr/include and /usr/local/include).
+  Alternatively, you can install it into some other place (e.g., your home
+  directory) and set MAKEFLAGS accordingly:
+
+  $ make install install_prefix=/home/boris/local
+  $ export MAKEFLAGS="-I /home/boris/local/include"
+
+
+Building examples
+
+  There is a makefile accompanying each example. Saying 'make'
+  usually does the trick. Note that saying 'make install' in
+  example directory will install what the example has built as
+  opposed to installing the example itself.
