+
+The EMBOSS suite has been successfully installed.
+
+In order to use the EMBOSS programs, you will need to set some environment
+variables in your shell startup file. If EMBOSS was installed to the
+default prefix, then:
+
+- set PLPLOT_LIB to: "/usr/local/share/EMBOSS"
+- set EMBOSS_ACDROOT to: "/usr/local/share/EMBOSS/acd"
+
+NB: A sample configuration file has been installed to /usr/local/etc as
+emboss.default.sample. This must be renamed to emboss.default and edited
+to suit your site and its requirements.
+
+A .embossrc in a user's home directory overrides settings in the
+system-wide emboss.default.
+
+Further EMBOSS documentation is available at:
+ http://www.uk.embnet.org/Software/EMBOSS/Doc/
