+Linux/Unix installation instructions follow.
+
+To install FindIT, from the source tree run:
+
+python setup.py install --prefix=<dir>
+
+If you omit --prefix FindIT will be installed into the python system
+directory (typically /usr)
+
+This is not recommended however, as there is no way to uninstall things
+easily this way.
+
+
+The recommended way of running FindIT is from the source tree, which might
+seem strange, but is no problem at all, especially if you are the only user of
+the system that is interested in running FindiT. From the source tree run:
+
+python ./findit.py
