+Installing Routes can be done the traditional way with:
+
+    python setup.py install
+
+Or directly from the CheeseShop via setuptools:
+
+    easy_install Routes
+
+Alternatively, you can copy the package to your site-packages directory
+to bypass the setuptools based install script (which requires an Internet
+connection).

+Routes is a Python re-implementation of the Rails routes system for mapping
+URL's to Controllers/Actions and generating URL's. Routes makes it easy to
+create pretty and concise URL's that are RESTful with little effort.
+
+Speedy and dynamic URL generation means you get a URL with minimal cruft
+(no big dangling query args). Shortcut features like Named Routes cut down
+on repetitive typing.
+
+View the INSTALL for installation instructions. Routes will typically be
+running integrated into an existing framework.
+
+For developers wishing to integrate Routes with their web
+application/framework, consult docs/integration.txt.
