+WELCOME TO S.I.M.O.N
+====================
+
+Which stands for:
+
+     Simple
+     Interface for
+     Making
+     Oliver's programs
+     Nice.
+
+This is a simple set of functions that hide much of the nastiness
+of 3D programming to make it possible for someone with only the
+very minimum of programming experience to write simple 3D applications.
+
+
+
+INSTALLATION
+============
+
+Right now, you build SIMON by running 'make' and install it by
+running 'make install' as root.  You must already have PLIB installed.
+
+Simon installs into /usr/local/simon/libsimon.a /usr/local/simon/simon.h
+and places an executable into /usr/local/bin/simon
+
+
+
+RUNNING SIMON
+=============
+
+There are two ways to write SIMON programs:
+
+  1) Write your code in C++ and link it to libsimon
+     (the LIBRARY version of SIMON).
+
+  2) Write your code in PSL (The PLIB Scripting Language)
+     and use the 'simon' program to run it.
+
+Documentation for both methods are in the 'doc' directory.
+
+
+
+DEMO'S
+======
+
+AstroPong is my son's first ever game (his first ever program actually).
+It was originally written in C++ using libsimon - but has subsequently
+been converted into PSL for use as a demonstration program.
+
+Once you've done a 'make install', you can change directory down into
+the 'simon' directory and run:
+
+       simon astropong.psl
+
+...move your paddle using the joystick - don't let the herring
+escape from the ice cube!
