-# 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.
+These files will be linked to symbolically in a directory ./public/. (Some
+metadata files will also be generated below ./metadata/: for each article, there
+will be generated a .uuid and a .intermediate file; furthermore, files for data
+used in ./feed.xml and ./index.html will be built and can be edited to customize
+the blog: ./metadata/url, ./metadata/author, ./metadata/uuid, ./metadata/title.) 
+
+bugs
+----
+
+Don't create a index.rst or index.md in the redo-managed directory, that will
+break things.
