+#### Installing
+
+Textadept is self-contained, meaning it does not need to be installed and can be
+run from wherever it is located. However, if you want to install Textadept like
+a normal Linux application, run the usual `make` and then `make install` or
+`sudo make install` depending on your privilages. The default prefix is

+DESTDIR=/prefix/to/install/to`).
