+Installation and usage of the Scyther tool
+==========================================
+
+Requirements
+------------
+
+To be able to use Scyther, you need the following three things:
+
+
+1. The GraphViz library.
+
+  This library is used by the Scyther tool to draw graphs. It can be
+  freely downloaded from:
+
+	http://www.graphviz.org/
+
+  Download the latest stable release and install it.
+
+
+
+The graphical user interface of Scyther is written in the Python
+language. Therefore, the GUI requires the following two items:
+
+
+2. Python 
+
+  Stable releases of the Python interpreter are available from:
+
+  	<a href="http://www.python.org/download/">
+
+  Scyther does not support Python 3. You are therefore recommended to
+  choose the latest production release of Python 2, e.g., Python 2.7.
+
+  Mac OS X:
+  	If the package yields an error when you try to install it,
+  	please use the following, in the directory where you downloaded
+  	it:
+  	
+  	 $ sudo installer -pkg graphviz-2.34.0.pkg -target /
+
+
+3. wxPython libraries.
+
+  The GUI user interface uses the wxPython libraries.
+
+	<a href="http://www.wxpython.org/download.php">
+
+  There are many different wxPython packages. You should choose a 32-bit
+  package that matches your Python version (e.g., 2.7). It is
+  recommended to select the unicode version from the stable releases.
+
+  As of writing (May 2013) the following links lead to the appropriate
+  wxPython packages for Python 2.7:
+
+  Windows:
+  	<a href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.12.1-py27.exe">
+
+  Mac OS X:
+  	<a href="http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wxpython/wxPython2.8-osx-unicode-2.8.12.1-universal-py2.7.dmg">
+
+	Note that this package is in an old format and you will probably
+	get a warning "Package is damaged". This can be resolved by:
+  	
+  	 $ sudo installer -pkg /Volume/.../wxPython2.8-osx-unicode-universal-py2.7.pkg/ -target /
+
+  Ubuntu/Debian Linux:
+  	<a href="http://wiki.wxpython.org/InstallingOnUbuntuOrDebian">
+
+
+Running Scyther
+---------------
+
+
+Start Scyther by executing the file
+
+  	scyther-gui.py
+
+in the directory where you found this file.
+
+  Mac OS X:
+  
+    Right-click the file 'scyther-gui.py' and select "Open with" and
+    then "Python Launcher".
+
+
