Please :) In the 'originals', only the section headers were caps - I'm
ok with this, but all caps makes my eyes bleed.

What I was getting at was that the install directions are going to
change a lot over time... So there is no need to put them in a file
directly - simply point them to the instructions on the wiki for the
given OS - this should just be in the readme.

I am hoping in time that actual installation will get better over
time, and more OS's will be added, so multiple install instruction
files, etc should be avoided (IMO).   But I don't want to clutter up
the topdir with multiple 'install' files that will perhaps frequently
be out of date, and require maintenance.
