+Installing a binary GF distribution:
+
+1. Untar the distribution file:
+
+   $ gtar -zxf GF-2.8-[host].tar.gz
+
+2. Go to the created directory:
+
+   $ cd GF-2.8-[host]
+
+3. Run configure:
+
+   $ ./configure
+
+   If you don't want to install the files under /usr/local, 
+   run configure with the right installation prefix. E.g.:
+
+   $ ./configure --prefix=/usr
+
+4. Install:
+
+   $ make install
+
+If the above procedure should fail (e.g. you don't have "make" available), you
+can do a manual install:
+
+  1. Untar the package and go to the GF directory, as 1-2 above.
+
+  2. The executable is the file "gf". You may want to move it somewhere
+     else, e.g. /usr/local/bin
+
+  3. The libraries are in the subdirectory "lib/". It is recommended to
+     create an environment variable GF_LIB_PATH pointing to that directory.
+     In the bash shell, you do
+
+     $ export GF_LIB_PATH=[your gf directory]/lib
+
