+This archive contains pre-configured libcutl source code with all its 
+dependencies. It allows you to built libcutl in non-interactive mode
+(that is, without answering any questions).
+
+GNU make 3.81 or later is required to build libcutl. Any fairly recent 
+GNU/Linux distribution should have it already installed (use 
+make --version to check).
+
+The build system supports the following standard variables:
+
+CXX        (defaults to g++ if not set)
+CPPFLAGS
+CXXFLAGS
+LDFALGS
+LIBS
+
+For example:
+
+$ make CXX=g++-4.2 CXXFLAGS=-O3
+
+After the build, libcutl.so be found in the libcutl/cutl/ directory.
+
+If you would like to see the full compiler/linker/etc., command lines,
+you can add verbose=1 to the command line, for example:
+
+$ make verbose=1
+
+To build and run automated tests for libcutl as well as all the 
+dependencies, run:
+
+$ make test
+
+The clean the object files, libraries, executable, etc., run:
+
+$ make clean
+
+You can also run make from various sub-directories in this package. For
+example, to build and run automated tests only for libcutl, you can do
+the following:
+
+$ cd libcutl/tests
+$ make test
