-To compile this game first pull in my modified version of the Inform 
-standard library:
+The recommended way to get a copy of this game is a recursive clone:
 
-       git submodule init
-       git submodule update
+    git clone --recursive https://jxself.org/git/the-mall.git
 
-You will also need my modified version of the Inform compiler from 
-https://jxself.org/git/?p=inform.git
+This will clone all submodules recursively. If you did not perform a
+recursive clone, once you have a copy of this git repository you will
+also need the source code for the standard library:
+
+    git submodule update --init --recursive
+
+You also need to have my modified version of the Inform compiler. See 
+https://jxself.org/git/?p=inform.git to download and install the 
+compiler on your system.
 
 Once the compiler has been compiled and is ready for use return to 
 this directory and run:
 
        inform +include_path=lib the-mall
 
-Or you can run the included build.sh script which does the same thing, 
-assuming that the inform compiler is included in your PATH.
+Or you can run the included build.sh script which does the same thing.
 
 You will then get the story file for this game that can be run using 
 any appropriate Z-Machine interpreter, such as Frotz. Your GNU/Linux 
 distro probably has that packaged already for easy installation.
 
+A great big thanks to David Griffith for keeping Inform 6 alive.
