+			Compiling the Game
+
+Required software:
+	make
+	cc
+
+Machine-wise configuration
+
+	Determine what kind of machine you're on (sun4, sun3, sequent,
+	mipsultrix machine, alpha, etc).
+
+	Type "make" at the high level, and see if your machine is in the
+	resulting list.
+
+	If it is not, you will need to edit the high-level Makefile and
+	add support for your architecture in.  Send e-mail to:
+		"wolfpack@wolfpackempire.com"
+	if you need help doing this.
+
+Constructing Binaries
+
+	First, run "make depend" to build the dependencies.  You only need
+	to do this once before the first build.  You may run this again if
+	you make significant changes to the code (including new files, etc.)
+
+	Second, Run "make <arch> &" at the top level.
+	
+Installing Info Pages
+
+	The INFO pages aren't run as a part of the normal make session.
+	In order to install them, you must cd into the "info" subdirectory,
+	and run "make".  This will nroff all the info documents and place
+	them in the "../info.nr" directory, from where players can
+	access them during the game.
+
+	You will need perl5 installed as your version of perl for this to
+	work.
+
+	If you add or change any info pages, then be sure to follow
+	the instructions in info/README to generate new Subjects pages.
