+The zilutils comprise a compiler and assembler that target the 
+Z-Machine. The Z-Machine is a virtual machine developed by the people 
+at Infocom for their games: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-machine>.
+
+The zilutils are licensed under version 3 of the GNU Affero General 
+Public License or, at your option, any later version. See COPYING for 
+details.
+
+It is currently a work-in-progress. All contributions are welcome.
+
+To build this you will need a C compiler (GCC is assumed although 
+others may work), GNU Autoconf, and GNU Make. Your GNU/Linux distro 
+probably has these already packaged for easy installation.
+
+Once these are installed first run autoreconf --install; then see the 
+INSTALL file for installation information.
