 Source
 ------
 
 To build from source you will need a Java SDK, version 6, and Apache
 ant, as well as NSIS to build the Windows installer package.
 
-cd src
-ant -f PCTB.xml
+You can run the script "build-sh" do to the build:
+  ./build-sh
+
+It will create in the current directory (the top level of the build)
+the .jar files for JPCTB and also the two distribution files:
+  jpctb-setup.exe   the installer for windows users
+  jpctb.tar.gz      a filtered tarball of this whole directory, for linux users
+
+Currently the build only seems to work with the Sun JDK, so the script
+sets JAVA_HOME to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun.  If that's not what you
+want, set JAVA_HOME yourself.
+
+To make shipping the files a bit easier it prints a rune for rsyncing
+the files to the test version on the distribution site.  You can set
+JPCTB_PUBLISH_BASE and ..._DIR to control the exact output.
+
+If you want to clean out the build directory to make sure you get a
+rebuild from scratch, say
+  git-clean -x -f -d
+
