+
+LINUX
+-----
+Whereever possible, you should use the packages supplied by your Linux
+distribution.
+
+If you really do need to compile from source it should be as easy as:
+
+		./configure
+		make
+		make install
+
+Since libsndfile optionally links against libFLAC, libogg and libvorbis, you
+will need to install appropriate versions of these libraries before running
+configure as above.
+
+
+UNIX
+----
+Compile as for Linux.
+
+
+Win32/Win64
+-----------
+The default Windows compilers are nowhere near compliant with the 1999 ISO
+C Standard and hence not able to compile libsndfile.
+
+Please use the libsndfile binaries available on the libsndfile web site.
+
+
+MacOSX
+------
+Building on MacOSX should be the same as building it on any other Unix.
