+$ make install
+
+Run
+---
+
+1) run mpd:
+<port>: port number daemon listens on (if running as a user, this should be 
+	greater than 1024)
+<mp3 directory>:  directory containing mp3's
+<playlist directory>: directory where playlists will be stored (and .mpddb will
+	be placed)
+<mpd log>: log file for mpd
+<mpd err>: error log file for mpd
+
+$ mpd <port> <mp3 directory> <playlist directory> <mpd log> <mpd err>
+
+example where mpd executable is in mpd-x.x.x directory:
+$ mpd-x.x.x/mpd 2100 mp3 playlists mpd.log mpd.err
+
+Note: The first time you run mpd, it will "explore" your mp3 directory for
+mp3's.
+
+Also, mpd can alternatively use config file.  In this case,
+run mpd like this:
+
+$ mpd <config file>
+
+(if no config file is specified, mpd's looks for ~/.mpdconf then /etc/mpd.conf)
+
+an example would be:
+
+$ mpd playlists/.mpdconf
+
+A sample config file is included with the source of MPD, mpdconf.example .
