Added the first section, about the main page downloads, and changed the CVS commands into indidvidule (<- spelling?) commands, 3 in total. (One for logging in, and 2 for checking out)
Line 1:
=Precompiled JAR files=
You can download the latest ''stable'' version at the main page, http://arianne.sf.net You can also use CVS, but that code is buggy, compared to the versions avialable to download at the main page. If you use the CVS version, you must also compile the files, and create the JAR files.
 
=About CVS=
CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is a tool used by many software developers to manage changes within their source code tree. CVS provides the means to store not only the current version of a piece of source code, but a record of all changes (and who made those changes) that have occurred to that source code. Use of CVS is particularly common on projects with multiple developers, since CVS ensures changes made by one developer are not accidentally removed when another developer posts their changes to the source tree.
Line 7 ⟶ 10:
This project's SourceForge.net CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key. To determine the names of the modules created by this project, you may examine their CVS repository via the provided web-based CVS repository viewer.
