+#This directory contains a jbake project that regenerates the JalviewLite example pages
+#shown at http://www.jalview.org/examples/applets.html
+
+#Instructions for building the examples directory from the jbake project:
+
+#Download jbake and add it to your path:
+#http://hash.to/2R
+#(unzip the download and add the extracted directory to your path)
+
+cd examples-jbake
+
+# this generates the example pages in the 'output' directory
+jbake
+
+# jbake -s will test the output. Copy build artefacts (jalviewLite/JmolApplet jars) into the assets directory to create a real test
+
+# remove the pages jbake autogenerates
+rm output/archive.html output/index.html output/feed.xml
+
+# and copy all the rest to examples
+cp output/*.html ../examples/
+cp -R output/css output/images ../examples/
