+Building and running instructions
+=================================
+
+by Blake McBride
+
+In general, to compile a Java class file (like Main.java for example)
+use:
+
+	javac  -cp  ../../../abcl.jar  Main.java
+
+where the "../../../" represents the path to your abcl.jar file.
+
+This compiles the Java source file "Main.java" into a JVM runtime or
+class file named "Main.class".
+
+To run the example (Main.class for example) from a Unix-like OS use:
+
+	java  -cp  ../../../abcl.jar:.  Main
+
+or in Windows use:
+
+	java  -cp  ../../../abcl.jar;.  Main
+
+where "Main" is the initial class to run in your Java program.
