+KiCad installation
+==================
+
+The parts of KiCad
+------------------
+KiCad consists of 3 packages:
+
+kicad         - KiCad programs and core files.
+kicad-doc     - Documentation and interactive help (optional package).
+kicad-library - KiCad schematic, pcb & 3D-model libraries (optional package).
+
+
+Installation from binary packages
+---------------------------------
+
+   KiCad binary packages exist for Linux and Windows (XP, 2000).
+
+   Data files (schematic, boards, libraries) are compatible with all platforms.
+
+*.zip  - KiCad packages for Windows.
+*.tbz2 - KiCad for Linux.
+
+
+Installation from binary packages for Windows
+---------------------------------------------
+
+   KiCad can be installed in 'C:\kicad', 'D:\kicad', 'C:\Program files\kicad',
+'D:\Program files\kicad'.
+
+   For example, for an installation in the folder 'C:\kicad', unzip KiCad
+packages:
+
+  kicad-{version}.zip
+  kicad-doc-{version}.zip
+  kicad-library-{version}.zip
+
+to the folder 'C:\kicad'.
+
+   The main program is the project manager (kicad.exe) and from it you can run
+the other programs (schematic editor - eeschema, pcb editor - pcbnew,
+utilities: cvpcb and gerbview).
+
+   You can create a shortcut to 'C:\kicad\bin\kicad.exe'.
+
+
+Installation from binary packages for Linux
+-------------------------------------------
+
+   KiCad can be installed in '/usr' or '/usr/local'.
+
+   You must have "root" access for installation.
+
+    cd /
+    tar -xjf kicad-{version}.tbz2
+    tar -xjf kicad-doc-{version}.tbz2
+    tar -xjf kicad-library-{version}.tbz2
+
+   The main program is '/usr/bin/kicad'.
+
+
+Windows KiCad tree
+------------------
+
+kicad/bin                      - Binaries (executable files).
+kicad/doc                      - Various documentation.
+kicad/doc/help                 - Interactive help.
+kicad/share/demos              - Sample schematics and printed boards.
+kicad/share/internat           - Interface localization files.
+kicad/share/library            - Libraries for schematic.
+kicad/share/modules            - Module libraries for printed boards.
+kicad/share/modules/packages3d - 3D component models (.wrl and .wings format).
+
+   Files '*.mod' are libraries, and files '*.brd' are printed boards you can
+view with pcbnew.
+   Files *.brd show the existing modules (and 3D shapes) in libraries.
+
+
+Linux KiCad tree
+----------------
+KiCad can use the Windows tree or the below tree.
+When Kicad is coming from Linux distribution, the tree is:
+
+/usr/bin                            - Binaries (executable files).
+/usr/share/doc/kicad/               - Various documentation.
+/usr/share/doc/kicad/help           - Interactive help.
+/usr/share/kicad/demos              - Sample schematics and printed boards.
+/usr/share/kicad/internat           - Dictionaries for interface localization.
+/usr/share/kicad/library            - Interface localization files.
+/usr/share/kicad/modules            - Module libraries for printed boards.
+/usr/share/kicad/modules/packages3d - 3D component models (.wrl and .wings format).
+
+if KiCad does not found its files in usr/share, the search is made in
+/usr/local/kicad
+and kicad uses the same tree as the Windows KiCad tree above
+
+*** When KiCad comes from .tgz archive from http://iut-tice.ujf-grenoble.fr/cao/,
+it must me installed in /usr/local and uses the Windows tree ***.
+
+
+   Files '*.mod' are the libraries, and files '*.brd' are printed boards you can
+view with pcbnew.
+   Files *.brd show the existing modules (and 3D shapes) in libraries.
+
+Warning:
+Do not change the KiCad tree, or the location of binary files,
+else KiCad will not be able to find its required files (configuration,
+libraries, etc.).
+
+Mac OS X KiCad tree
+-------------------
+
+System wide files
+
+/Library/Application Support/kicad/demos
+/Library/Application Support/kicad/internat
+/Library/Application Support/kicad/library
+/Library/Application Support/kicad/modules
+/Library/Application Support/kicad/modules/packages3d
+
+User files can be the same as the system wide files but only inside the users home directory.
+
+$HOME/Library/Application Support/kicad
+
+Warning:
+These paths are hardcoded into KiCad, if you put them somewhere else KiCad will not find them when a new
+project is created.
+
+Installation from source code
+-----------------------------
+
+   Some dependencies must be satisfied for the correct installation of KiCad:
+under Linux:
+wxWidgets           >= 2.8.11        http://www.wxwidgets.org/
+under Windows:MacOSX
+wxWidgets           >= 2.9.3        http://www.wxwidgets.org/
+CMake               >= 2.6.4         http://www.cmake.org/
+Boost C++ Libraries  (files used by kicad are provided in kicad sources) http://www.boost.org/
+OpenGL
+  Linux:   Mesa 3D Graphics Library  http://www.mesa3d.org/
+  Windows: built-in
+Zlib Compression Library             http://www.zlib.net/
+
+   In source-tree-build are mostly unwanted, so make a subdir called "build" and
+change to it.
+
+   Call cmake with the path to KiCad. E.g., when your build-folder is "build"
+within source-tree, type "cmake ../".
+
+   Now your system get checked if it is able compiling KiCad and cmake generates
+the Makefiles.
+
+   After calling cmake just type "make" and build begins.
+
+   It is easy to build only a specific binary such as pcbnew alone:
+    make pcbnew
+
+   After "make" type "make install" and install begins.
+
+   You may install to a temporary-root with
+    make install DESTDIR=<temproot>
+
+   If you want to uninstall KiCad again type "make uninstall" from within the
+build directory.
+
+
+Important parameters to cmake
+-----------------------------
+
+-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<buildtype>
+<buildtype> may current one of "Debug" and "Release".
+
+-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<prefix>
+Default to "/usr/local".
+
+-DwxWidgets_ROOT_DIR=<wxInstallDir>
+Required for Windows platform.
+
+-DwxWidgets_USE_DEBUG=ON
+Can be used only with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+
+-DwxWidgets_USE_STATIC=ON
+For building statically linked executables. Can be used only if wxWidgets
+configured and builded with "--enable-monolithic --disable-shared" parameters.
+
+-DwxWidgets_USE_STATIC=OFF
+For building dinamically linked executables. Can be used only if wxWidgets
+configured and builded with "--disable-monolithic --enable-shared" parameters.
+
+-DwxUSE_UNICODE=ON
+Require on locale utf8 for build the KiCad with cyrillic fonts support.
+
+-DKICAD_GOST=ON
+Build the KiCad with russian GOST support.
+
+-DKICAD_KEEPCASE=ON
+Build the KiCad with no component name conversion to uppercase (if you want your
+ADuC.../Si.../bq... components named as just so).
+
+-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=<some extra flags>
+Extra flags for the c++ compiler for your system required.
+
+-DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON
+When more output is wanted use this cmake parameter or call "make VERBOSE=1".
+
+
+Extra CFLAGS and linker flags
+-----------------------------
+
+   If you require extra flags for compiler and linker you may give them via
+environment variables
+  "CXXFLAGS" (c++ compiler)
+  "LDFLAGS"  (for linker)
+  "CFLAGS"   (for c-compiler, not needed in kdesvn build)
+
+eg., it may usefull on 64bit systems "-m64" to CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS.
