+* Using the Library
+ Please see the User Manual in the doc/html directory.
+
+ Most programs will include <hdf5.h> and link with
+ -lhdf5. Additional libraries may also be necessary depending
+ on whether support for compression, etc. was compiled into the
+ hdf5 library.
+
+ A summary of the hdf5 installation can be found in the
+ libhdf5.settings file in the same directory as the static
+ and/or shared hdf5 libraries.

* Support
Support is described in the README file.
