+This is release 3.8 of sash, my stand-alone shell for Linux or other systems.
+
+The purpose of this program is to make system recovery possible in
+many cases where there are missing shared libraries or executables.
+It does this by firstly being linked statically, and secondly by
+including versions of many of the standard utilities within itself.
+Read the sash.1 documentation for more details.
+
+Type "make install" to build and install the program and man page.
+
+Several options in the Makefile can be changed to build sash for
+other UNIX-like systems. In particular, dependencies on Linux file
+systems can be removed and the mount command can be configured.
