 INSTALL
 -------

+You need to install the library to the postgresql library
 directory. You do it by running:
 
-    $ make install
+    $ sudo make install
 
-Then you need to enable your database to use the new functions.
-It is reccommended to use a test database at first:
+POST-INSTALL TEST
+-----------------
 
-    $ createdb test_wktraster
-    $ createlang plpgsql test_wktraster
-    $ psql -f rt_pg/rtpostgis.sql test_wktraster

-Then you can run the IO tests against it:
+    $ make post-install-check
 
-    $ psql -f rt_pg/test/io.sql test_wktraster
+USE
+---
 
-The test succeeds if you get all 't' (true) values in last two
-columns of the final query. The data is left on an rt_table
-for use to further test.
+In order to enable your databases to use the wktraster
+functionalities you have to feed them the enabler script:
 
+    $ psql -f rt_pg/rtpostgis.sql $MYDB
+
+Note that you must have spatially-enabled the database
+in order for that to work (see postgis documentation
+for how to do that).
