+# REMIND
+
+Remind is a full-featured calendar/alarm program.  Copying policy is
+in the file "COPYRIGHT" included with the source; Remind is licensed under
+the GNU General Public License, Vesion 2.
+
+## Prerequisites:
+
+`remind` and `rem2ps` have no prerequisites beyond the standard C library and
+the standard math library.
+
+`rem2html` requires the `JSON::MaybeXS` Perl module and `rem2pdf`
+requires the `JSON::MaybeXS`, `Pango` and `Cairo` Perl modules.
+
+- On Debian-like systems, these prerequisites may be installed with:
+
+    `apt install libjson-maybexs-perl libpango-perl libcairo-perl`
+
+- On RPM-based systems, you need `perl-Pango`, `perl-Cairo` and
+  `perl-JSON-MaybeXS`
+
+- On Gentoo, you need `dev-perl/Pango`, `dev-perl/Cairo` and
+  `dev-perl/JSON-MaybeXS`.
+
+- On Arch linux, you need `pango-perl`, `cairo-perl` and `perl-json-maybexs`
+
+TkRemind requires Tcl/Tk and the `tcllib` library.
+
+- On Debian-like systems, install with:
+
+    `apt install tcl tk tcllib`
+
+- On RPM-based systems, you need `tcl`, `tk` and `tcllib`
+
+- On Arch Linux, you need `tk` and `tcllib`.  The latter is available at
+  https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tcllib
+
+If the little arrows for "Previous Month" and "Next Month" do not display
+correctly in TkRemind, you may need to install the Noto Fonts.  Install
+all of your distribution's Nonto Font-related packages.
+
+- On Debian-like systems, install with:
+
+    `apt install fonts-noto-core fonts-noto-color-emoji fonts-noto-extra fonts-noto-ui-core fonts-noto-ui-extra`
+
+## Installation
+
+Remind can be installed with the usual:
+
+`./configure && make && make test && sudo make install`
+
+You can edit `custom.h` to configure some aspects of Remind.  Or, if
+you have Tcl/Tk installed, you can use the graphical build tool to
+edit `custom.h` on your behalf:
+
+`wish ./build.tk`
