+One of these days, I'll turn this in to an actual
+.dtx file with all of the nifty built-in auto-install
+procedures, plus real documentation. However, until
+then you have to do it by hand.
+
+The following files should end up in your texmf tree
+(or your localtexmf tree) at these locations:
+
+ <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.cls
+ <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-patch.sty
+ <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-losa.sty
+ <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-gloss.sty
+ <texmf>/tex/latex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-index.sty
+ <texmf>/bibtex/bst/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis.bst
+ <texmf>/bibtex/bst/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-losa.bst
+ <texmf>/makeindex/gatech-thesis/gatech-thesis-index.ist
+
+Then, you need to update the file database; usually this is
+something like "initexmf -u". On MikTeX, you run the "MikTeX
+Options" program, and on the "General" tab, in the "File name
+database" section, click on the button that says "Refresh Now".
+
+Alternatively, you can simply copy all of these files into your
+local work directory where your thesis files will live.
+However, this is sometimes dangerous as you might be tempted
+to edit them directly. Wherever you choose to install the
+official files, don't edit or modify them..
+
+You should not need to modify the style/class files. However,
+if you find that you must modify their behavior, the best thing
+to do is to copy just the section of code (e.g. the function
+definition) that needs changing into your own personal,
+document-specific style file, and edit it there. You're
+version will override the "real" version -- and there is no
+need to modify the standard files.
+
+See the commented-out section at the end of
+julesverne/bellswhistles/jules-verne.sty file, which is an
+example of just this sort of thing -- it modifies the \contents
+macro in gatech-thesis.cls, *without actually editing
+gatech-thesis.cls*
