-# redo-blog
+redo-blog
+=========
 
 small blog system using the redo build system
 
-dependencies:
+dependencies
+------------
+
+- redo
 - python3
 - uuidgen
 - html2text
+- pandoc
+
+testing
+-------
+
+Run ./test.sh.
+
+setup
+-----
+
+To set up a directory with symbolic links to the relevant files in ./processor/,
+run ./add_dir.sh DIRECTORY.
+
+You can then enter the directory and run redo there. This will generate article
+.html files from all .md and .rst files, plus a ./index.html, and a ./feed.xml.
+(Some other metadata files will also be generated: for each article, there will
+also be generated a .uuid and a .intermediate file; furthermore, files with
+metadata used in ./feed.xml and ./index.html will be built and can be edited to
+customize the blog: ./url, ./author, ./uuid, ./title.) 
+
+bugs
+----
+
+Due to bad shell scripting in ./processor/index.html.do and
+./processor/feed.xml.do (see the FIXME notes there), source files whose names
+contain "$" break the redo processing.
+
+Oh, and don't create a index.rst or index.md in the redo-managed directory,
+that will also break things.
