-NOTE: It is generally useless to ask me how to set up the library in your IDE
-because you know more about the IDE than I do (unless it's the Eclipse CDT
-<http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/>).
+Alternatively, you can use your own build system or IDE. In that case, you must
+put the library header files where the compiler will find them and arrange to
+have your program linked with the library source files; otherwise, you will get
+errors about missing header files or "undefined references". To learn how to do
+this, consult the documentation for the build system or IDE; don't bother asking
+me. Adding all the library files to your project will work in many IDEs but may
+not be the most desirable approach.
