+UNIX BUILD
+==========
+
+Building under most UNIX systems is easy, just run the configure script
+and then run make. For more information about the build process, see
+the tcl/unix/README file in the Tcl src dist. The following minimal
+example will install the extension in the /opt/tcl directory.
+
+ $ cd sampleextension
+ $ ./configure --prefix=/opt/tcl
+ $ make
+ $ make install
+
+WINDOWS BUILD
+=============
+
+See the tcl/win/README file included in the Tcl src dist for details
+about how to build the extension under Windows. We suggest using
+the Msys + Mingw build process since it is significantly easier
+than building with VC++ or Cygwin.
