+
+1. Introduction
+   ------------
+
+This is version 0.7.3 of nload, a console application which monitors network
+traffic and bandwidth usage in real time.
+It visualizes the in- and outgoing traffic using two graphs and provides
+additional info like total amount of transfered data and min/max network
+usage.
+
+2. Installing / Compiling nload
+   ----------------------------
+
+Compiling is done by running
+
+./configure
+make
+
+in the directory where this README is.
+To install nload, you have to be root:
+
+su
+make install
+
+You can find more detailed information in the file INSTALL in this directory.
+
+3. Using nload
+   -----------
+
+To learn about the command line switches and the usage of nload in general,
+simply run:
+

+
+Alternatively, there is a nload man page available by typing:
+
+man nload
+
+4. Uninstalling nload
+   ------------------
+
+If you want to uninstall nload (I hope you never want to ;-), run:
