+
+ SCons - a software construction tool
+
+ Version 2.0.1
+
+
+This is SCons, a tool for building software (and other files). SCons is
+implemented in Python, and its "configuration files" are actually Python
+scripts, allowing you to use the full power of a real scripting language
+to solve build problems. You do not, however, need to know Python to
+use SCons effectively.
+
+See the RELEASE.txt file for notes about this specific release,
+including known problems. See the CHANGES.txt file for a list of
+changes since the previous release.
+
+
+LATEST VERSION
+==============
+
+Before going further, you can check that this package you have is
+the latest version by checking the SCons download page at:
+
+ http://www.scons.org/download.html
+
+
+EXECUTION REQUIREMENTS
+======================
+
+Running SCons requires Python version 2.4 or later. There should be
+no other dependencies or requirements to run SCons. (There is, however,
+an additional requirement to *install* SCons from this particular
+package; see the next section.)
+
+By default, SCons knows how to search for available programming tools
+on various systems--see the SCons man page for details. You may,
+of course, override the default SCons choices made by appropriate
+configuration of Environment construction variables.
+
+
+INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
+=========================
+
+Nothing special.
+
+
+INSTALLATION
+============
+
+Assuming your system satisfies the installation requirements in the
+previous section, install SCons from this package simply by running the
+provided Python-standard setup script as follows:
+
+ # python setup.py install
+
+By default, the above command will do the following:
+
+ -- Install the version-numbered "scons-2.0.1" and "sconsign-2.0.1"
+ scripts in the default system script directory (/usr/bin or
+ C:\Python*\Scripts, for example). This can be disabled by
+ specifying the "--no-version-script" option on the command
+ line.
+
+ -- Install scripts named "scons" and "sconsign" scripts in the
+ default system script directory (/usr/bin or C:\Python*\Scripts,
+ for example). This can be disabled by specifying the
+ "--no-scons-script" option on the command line, which is useful
+ if you want to install and experiment with a new version before
+ making it the default on your system.
+
+ On UNIX or Linux systems, you can have the "scons" and "sconsign"
+ scripts be hard links or symbolic links to the "scons-2.0.1" and
+ "sconsign-2.0.1" scripts by specifying the "--hardlink-scons"
+ or "--symlink-scons" options on the command line.
+
+ -- Install "scons-2.0.1.bat" and "scons.bat" wrapper scripts in the
+ Python prefix directory on Windows (C:\Python*, for example).
+ This can be disabled by specifying the "--no-install-bat" option
+ on the command line.
+
+ On UNIX or Linux systems, the "--install-bat" option may be
+ specified to have "scons-2.0.1.bat" and "scons.bat" files
+ installed in the default system script directory, which is useful
+ if you want to install SCons in a shared file system directory
+ that can be used to execute SCons from both UNIX/Linux and
+ Windows systems.
+
+ -- Install the SCons build engine (a Python module) in an
+ appropriate version-numbered SCons library directory
+ (/usr/lib/scons-2.0.1 or C:\Python*\scons-2.0.1, for example).
+ See below for more options related to installing the build
+ engine library.
+
+ -- Install the troff-format man pages in an appropriate directory
+ on UNIX or Linux systems (/usr/share/man/man1 or /usr/man/man1,
+ for example). This can be disabled by specifying the
+ "--no-install-man" option on the command line. The man pages
+ can be installed on Windows systems by specifying the
+ "--install-man" option on the command line.
+
+Note that, by default, SCons does not install its build engine library
+in the standard Python library directories. If you want to be able to
+use the SCons library modules (the build engine) in other Python
+scripts, specify the "--standard-lib" option on the command line, as
+follows:
+
+ # python setup.py install --standard-lib
+
+This will install the build engine in the standard Python library
+directory (/usr/lib/python*/site-packages or
+C:\Python*\Lib\site-packages).
+
+Alternatively, you can have SCons install its build engine library in a
+hard-coded standalone library directory, instead of the default
+version-numbered directory, by specifying the "--standalone-lib" option
+on the command line, as follows:
+
+ # python setup.py install --standalone-lib
+
+This is usually not recommended, however.
+
+Note that, to install SCons in any of the above system directories,
+you should have system installation privileges (that is, "root" or
+"Administrator") when running the setup.py script. If you don't have
+system installation privileges, you can use the --prefix option to
+specify an alternate installation location, such as your home directory:
+
+ $ python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME
+
+This will install SCons in the appropriate locations relative to
+$HOME--that is, the scons script itself $HOME/bin and the associated
+library in $HOME/lib/scons, for example.
