+ GRAPHITE ENGINE
+
+The Graphite smart-font engine is the bit that takes a Unicode string, font
+formatting information (features, size, etc.) and a font and returns a set
+of positioned glyphs. Graphite also does more than this, in that it can
+handle cursor tracking and interaction with the application for string
+selection, etc.
+
+In order to interact with the application or system, Graphite is embedded in
+an application. You may want to write a custom font and render backend or use one
+of the provided backends in the wrappers project.
+
+The *nix build system uses autoconf and automake including all the
+conventions of those tools. This includes extended support for debug,
+maintenance mode, etc. See the GNU autotools info pages for the appropriate
+tools for help.
+
+If you have checked this source out of the Graphite Subversion repository or
+a similar version control system you will need to generate the autotools
+scripts and files (configure, Makefile.in etc) to do this run:
+
+ autoreconf --install
+
+Please see INSTALL for information on building
+
+NOTE:
+If you modify any configure.in or Makefile.am file you will need rerun
+autoreconf like so:
+
+ autoreconf
+
+For those changes to affect the configure script and makefiles.
