+		<strong>Building the JalviewLite applet<br>
+		</strong> The JalviewLite applet is compiled using a subset of the packages in
+		the src directory (specifically: MCView, and jalview.{datamodel,
+		analysis, appletgui, utils, schemes, api, structure}, and
+		com.stevesoft.*). Once compiled, these class files are obfuscated to
+		make the code run efficiently. To compile the applet Jar, use the
+		makeApplet task - optionally passing in a 'donotobfuscate' property to
+		the ant build (e.g. -Ddonotobfuscate=true) to disable obfuscation. </p><p>
+		The ant target 'pubapplet' can be used to compile install the
+		jalviewApplet.jar and any dependent jars (under appletlib) into a copy
+		of the examples directory created under the <em>outputDir</em> build
+		property (which defaults to the 'dist' directory).
