+
+Building the Library
+====================
+
+On Linux, libufodecode uses the CMake build system. The normal procedure to
+build this library is to create an empty build directory:
+
+    $ mkdir build/ && cd build
+
+configure the project using CMake:
+
+    $ cmake ../
+
+and compiling the library with make:
+
+    $ make
+    $ make install
+
+Options to the build process can be passed to the system when configuring:
+
+    $ cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
+
+or via configuration tools like `ccmake`.
