+== script.aculo.us web 2.0 javascript
+
+The Web is changing. The 30-year-old terminal-like technology it was originally 
+is gradually giving way to new ways of doing things. The power of AJAX allows 
+for rich user interaction without the trouble that has bugged traditional 
+web applications. 
+
+Building upon the wonderful Prototype JavaScript library, script.aculo.us 
+provides you with some great additional ingredients to mix in.
+
+For more information, see http://script.aculo.us/
+
+== What's new in this release?
+
+See the CHANGELOG file for information on what's new.
+
+You can follow http://twitter.com/scriptaculous if you want
+to be updated as we fix bugs and add new features.
+
+== Installation/Usage
+
+script.aculo.us includes the Prototype JavaScript Framework 
+V1.6.0. You can use later versions, as they become available 
+(see http://prototypejs.org/).
+
+Put prototype.js, and the six files scriptaculous.js, 
+builder.js, effects.js, dragdrop.js, controls.js and slider.js 
+in a directory of your website, e.g. /javascripts.
+
+(The sound.js and unittest.js files are optional)
+
+Now, you can include the scripts by adding the following 
+tags to the HEAD section of your HTML pages:
+
+ <script src="/javascripts/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
+ <script src="/javascripts/scriptaculous.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
+
+scriptaculous.js will automatically load the other files of the 
+script.aculo.us distribution in, provided they are accessible 
+via the same path.
+
+See http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Usage for detailed
+usage instructions.
+
+== The distribution
+
+Besides the script.aculo.us files in src, there's a complete
+test tree included which holds functional and unit tests for
+script.aculo.us.
+
+If you need examples on how to implement things, the best place to
+start is by opening test/run_functional_tests.html or 
+test/run_unit_tests.html in your browser, and looking at
+the sources of the examples provided.
