+Libnsfb - NetSurf Framebuffer Library
+=====================================
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+  Libnsfb is a framebuffer drawing library with a simple interface,
+  providing a consistent API across a number of framebuffer implementations.
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+  Libnsfb requires the following tools:
+
+    + A C99 capable C compiler
+    + GNU make or compatible
+    + Pkg-config
+
+  Libnsfb also requires the following libraries to be installed:
+
+    +  SDL 1.2 (for the SDL backend)
+    +  libxcb* (for the X11 backend)
+
+Compilation
+-----------
+
+  If necessary, modify the toolchain settings in the Makefile.
+  Invoke make:
+  		$ make
+
+Verification
+------------
+
+  To verify that the parser is working, it is necessary to specify a 
+  different makefile target than that used for normal compilation, thus:
+  
+  		$ make test
+
+API documentation
+-----------------
+
+  Currently, there is none. However, the code is well commented and the 
+  public API may be found in the "include" directory. The testcase sources 
+  may also be of use in working out how to use it.
