+1) Synopsis
+-----------
+
+wavemon is a wireless device monitoring application that allows you to watch
+signal and noise levels, packet statistics, device configuration and network
+parameters of your wireless network hardware. It *should* work (though with
+varying features) with all devices supported by the Linux wireless kernel
+extensions by Jean Tourrilhes.
+
+See the man page for an in-depth description of operation and configuration.
+
+
+2) Where to obtain
+------------------
+You can always find the latest version at:
+
+ http://eden-feed.erg.abdn.ac.uk/wavemon
+
+Please check this page for updates and for further information.
+wavemon is distributed under the GPLv3, refer to the file COPYING.
+
+
+3) How to build
+---------------
+wavemon uses autoconf, so that in most cases you can simply run
+
+ ./configure
+ make
+ sudo make install
+
+to build and install the package. Type 'make uninstall' if not happy.
+Refer to the file INSTALL for generic installation instructions.
+
+If you have changed some of the autoconf files or use a git version, run
+ ./config/bootstrap
+(requires a recent installation of 'autotools').
