-#### Just a few remarks upfront:
-* There is the (gradle/IDEA) module `parser`: that's the parser generated by ANTLR4, in Java. The only file to be edited here is the grammar, `prog8.g4`.
-* Then we have the module `compilerAst` - in Kotlin - which uses `parser` and adds AST nodes. Here we put our additions to the generated thing, *including any tests of the parsing stage*.
-  - the name is a bit misleading, as this module isn't (or, resp. shouldn't be; see below) about *compiling*, only the parsing stage
-  - also, the tree that comes out isn't much of an *abstraction*, but rather still more or less a parse tree (this might very well change).
-  - **However, let's not *yet* rename the module.** We'll find a good name during refactoring.
-
-#### Problems with `compilerAst`:
-* `ModuleImporter.kt`, doing (Prog8-) module resolution. That's not the parser's job.
-* `ParsingFailedError` (in `ModuleParsing.kt`): this exception (it is actually *not* a `java.lang.Error`...) is thrown in a number of places, where other exceptions would make more sense. For example: not finding a file should just yield a `NoSuchFileException`, not this one. The other problem with it is that it does not provide any additional information about the source of parsing error, in particular a `Position`.
-* During parsing, character literals are turned into UBYTEs (since there is no basic type e.g. CHAR). That's bad because it depends on a specific character encoding (`IStringEncoding` in `compilerAst/src/prog8/ast/AstToplevel.kt`) of/for some target platform. Note that *strings* are indeed encoded later, in the `compiler` module.
-* The same argument applies to `IMemSizer`, and - not entirely sure about that - `IBuiltinFunctions`.
-
-#### Steps to take, in conceptual (!) order:
-
-(note: all these steps have been implemented, rejected or otherwise solved now.)
-
-1. introduce an abstraction `SourceCode` that encapsulates the origin and actual loading of Prog8 source code
-   - from the local file system (use case: user programs)
-   - from resources (prog8lib)
-   - from plain strings (for testing)
-2. add subclass `ParseError : ParsingFailedError` which adds information about the *source of parsing error* (`SourceCode` and `Position`). We cannot just replace `ParsingFailedError`  right away because it is so widely used (even in the `compiler` module). Therefore we'll just subclass for the time being, add more and more tests requiring the new one to be thrown (or, resp., NOT to be thrown), and gradually transition.
-3. introduce a minimal interface to the outside, input: `SourceCode`, output: a tree with a `Module` node as the root
-   - this will be the Kotlin singleton `Prog8Parser` with the main method `parseModule`
-   - plus, optionally, method's for registering/unregistering a listener with the parser
-   - the *only* exception ever thrown / reported to listeners (TBD) will be `ParseError`
-   - anything related to the lexer, error strategies, character/token streams is hidden from the outside
-   - to make a clear distinction between the *generated* parser (and lexer) vs. `Prog8Parser`, and to discourage directly using the generated stuff, we'll rename the existing `prog8Parser`/`prog8Lexer` to `Prog8ANTLRParser` and `Prog8ANTLRLexer` and move them to package `prog8.parser.generated`
-4. introduce AST node `CharLiteral` and keep them until after identifier resolution and type checking; insert there an AST transformation step that turns them in UBYTE constants (literals)
-5. remove uses of `IStringEncoding` from module `compilerAst` - none should be necessary anymore
-6. move `IStringEncoding` to module `compiler`
-7. same with `ModuleImporter`, then rewrite that (addressing #46)
-8. refactor AST nodes and grammar: less generated parse tree nodes (`XyzContext`), less intermediary stuff (private classes in `Antrl2Kotlin.kt`), more compact code. Also: nicer names such as simply `StringLiteral` instead of `StringLiteralValue`
-9. re-think `IStringEncoding` to address #38

+----------------------
+
+- Download the latest [official release](https://github.com/irmen/prog8/releases) from github.
+- Or, if you want/need a bleeding edge development version, you can:
+  - download a build artifact zipfile from a recent [github action build](https://github.com/irmen/prog8/actions).
+  - you can also compile it yourself from source. [Instructions here](https://prog8.readthedocs.io/en/latest/compiling.html).
+    Note that if you are not using *gradle* to build it, you might have to perform some manual
+    tasks once to make it compile fully. These are explained in the linked instructions. 
+- Alternatively, you can also install the compiler as a package on some linux distros:

-- reduction of source code length over raw assembly
-- fast execution speed due to compilation to native assembly code. It's possible to write certain raster interrupt 'demoscene' effects purely in Prog8.
-- modularity, symbol scoping, subroutines
+- all advantages of a higher level language over having to write assembly code manually
+- programs run very fast because it's compiled to native machine code
+- code often is smaller and faster than equivalent C code compiled with CC65 or even LLVM-MOS
+- modularity, symbol scoping, subroutines. No need for forward declarations.
 - various data types other than just bytes (16-bit words, floats, strings)
-- floating point math is supported if the target system provides floating point library routines (C64 and Cx16 both do)
+- Structs and typed pointers
+- floating point math is supported on certain targets
+- access to most Kernal ROM routines as external subroutine definitions you can call normally
+- tight control over Zeropage usage
+- programs can be run multiple times without reloading because of automatic variable (re)initializations.
+- programs can be configured to execute in ROM
 - strings can contain escaped characters but also many symbols directly if they have a petscii equivalent, such as "♠♥♣♦π▚●○╳". Characters like ^, _, \, {, } and | are also accepted and converted to the closest petscii equivalents.
 - automatic static variable allocations, automatic string and array variables and string sharing
-- subroutines with input parameters and result values
 - high-level program optimizations
-- small program boilerplate/compilersupport overhead
-- programs can be run multiple times without reloading because of automatic variable (re)initializations.
-- conditional branches
+- conditional branches that map 1:1 to cpu status flags
 - ``when`` statement to provide a concise jump table alternative to if/elseif chains
+- ``on .. goto`` statement for fast jump tables
 - ``in`` expression for concise and efficient multi-value/containment check 
-- many built-in functions such as ``sin``, ``cos``, ``rnd``, ``abs``, ``min``, ``max``, ``sqrt``, ``msb``, ``rol``, ``ror``, ``swap``, ``sort`` and ``reverse``
+- ``defer`` statement to help write concise and robust subroutine cleanup logic
+- several specialized built-in functions such as ``lsb``, ``msb``, ``min``, ``max``, ``rol``, ``ror``
 - various powerful built-in libraries to do I/O, number conversions, graphics and more  
-- convenience abstractions for low level aspects such as ZeroPage handling, program startup, explicit memory addresses
