+===================================================
+Installation Notes for the Nominal Datatype Package
+===================================================
+
+The nominal datatype package is part of the development
+snapshots of Isabelle. However, please download the 
+nominal Isabelle snapshot from
+
+    http://isabelle.in.tum.de/nominal/download.html
+
+Unpack the sources in a suitable place, which in the 
+following will be called [ISABELLE_HOME]. If you use
+Isabelle for the first time, remember that you also 
+have to install ProofGeneral and Emacs or XEmacs.
+Instructions are given at
+
+    http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/hvg/Isabelle/installation.html
+
+The building process for the nominal datatype package
+needs to be started inside the [ISABELLE_HOME] directory 
+with the command:
+
+   ./build -m HOL-Nominal
+
+The build can take 5 or more minutes. After the build 
+completes, install the files with the command
+
+   ./bin/isatool install -p /usr/local/bin
+
+where -p /usr/local/bin is an option that refers to a 
+directory in which executables are stored on your system 
+(you might like to adapt this therefore).
+
+The sources of the nominal datatype package can be 
+found in the directory
+
+    [ISABELLE_HOME]/src/HOL/Nominal
+
+The examples are in
+
+    [ISABELLE_HOME]/src/HOL/Nominal/Examples
+
+===================================================
+Starting Isabelle with the Nominal Datatype Package 
+Preloaded
+===================================================
+
+Isabelle including the ProofGeneral interface can be 
+started with
+
+  Isabelle <<theory file you want to open>> &
+
+This automatically loads the correct keyword file 
+needed for the nominal datatype package and starts 
+ProofGeneral. You can enable the option HOL-Nominal
+in the menu "Isabelle -> Logics" in order to load
+the pre-built heap of Isabelle that includes the
+nominal package already. If not, the nominal theories
+will be rechecked.
