GF/src is now for 2.9, and the new sources are in src-3.0 - keep it this way until the release of GF 3

+To make and install GF (Updated for version 2.4).
+
+1. Unpack GF and go to the source directory (the place where this 
+   INSTALL file is - so you have probably done this already!)
+
+     tar xvfz GF-2.4.tgz
+     cd GF-2.4/src
+
+3. Make sure you have GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler), version 6.4 or later.
+   In Windows, you also need Cygwin.
+
+     ghc --version
+
+4. If you are building the darcs version, run autoconf (in src/):
+
+     autoconf
+
+5. Run configure
+
+     ./configure
+
+   If you want to install the GF somewhere other than /usr/local, use
+   the --prefix flag. E.g.
+
+     ./configure --prefix=/usr
+
+   To compile on Chalmers Solaris systems using VCS, use this configuration:
+
+     ./configure CPPFLAGS="`lib__readline -I` `lib__ncurses -I`" LDFLAGS="`lib__readline -l` `lib__ncurses -l`"
+
+   If you experience problems with readline, try:
+
+   ./configure --with-readline=no
+   
+   You may need to run "make clean" after ./configure when you change the 
+   readline setting.
+
+6. Compile with GNU make:
+
+     make
+
+   or
+
+     gmake
+
+   (if your system has a proprietary make)
+
+   The binary is sent to the file GF/bin/gf .
+
+7. Move files to their right places:
+
+     make install
+
+8. To run GF, the following environment variables must be set:
+
+     GFHOME         the GF directory,         e.g., "$HOME/project/GF-2.4"
+     GF_LIB_PATH    the GF library directory, e.g,, "$HOME/project/GF-2.4/lib"
+
+   (Usually, you do this in ~/.login, if your shell is any *csh,
+    or in ~/.profile, if your shell is either of sh, ksh, zsh or bash.
+    Afterwards, you have to start a login shell to have the settings available.)
+
+9. For a quick test: 
+   Start gf, load a grammar and parse a string:
+
+     cd $GFHOME/examples/tutorial/food
+     gf FoodIta.gf FoodEng.gf
+
+     -- when gf has started and shows the prompt >:
+
+     > parse "this cheese is very very Italian" | tree_bank
+
+     -- this is the response from GF:
+     Is (This Cheese) (Very (Very Italian))
+     this cheese is very very Italian
+     questo formaggio è molto molto italiano
+
+10. If you want to run the Java GUI, go back to $GFHOME/src directory
+    and also do
+
+     make install-java
+
+   Test the GUI with some grammars:
+
+     cd ../examples/letter
+     gf <mkLetter.gfs
+     jgf Letter.gfcm
+
+   When the window opens, push the Random button.
