-Before installing libpng, you must first install zlib. zlib
-can usually be found wherever you got libpng. zlib can be
-placed in another directory, at the same level as libpng.
-Note that your system might already have a preinstalled
-zlib, but you will still need to have access to the
-zlib.h and zconf.h include files that correspond to the
-version of zlib that's installed.
+On Unix/Linux and similar systems, you can simply type
+
+ ./configure [--prefix=/path]
+ make check
+ make install
+
+and ignore the rest of this document.
+
+If configure does not work on your system and you have a reasonably
+up-to-date set of tools, running ./autogen.sh before running ./configure
+may fix the problem. You can also run the individual commands in
+autogen.sh with the --force option, if supported by your version of
+the tools. If you run 'libtoolize --force', though, this will replace
+the distributed, patched, version of ltmain.sh with an unpatched version
+and your shared library builds may fail to produce libraries with the
+correct version numbers.
+
+Instead, you can use one of the custom-built makefiles in the
+"scripts" directory
+
+ cp scripts/makefile.system makefile
+ make test
+ make install
+
+Or you can use one of the "projects" in the "projects" directory.
+
+If you want to use "cmake" (see www.cmake.org), copy CMakeLists.txt
+from the "scripts" directory to this directory and type
+
+ cmake . [-DPNG_MMX=YES] -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path
+ make
+ make install
