+INTRODUCTIION 
+
+CLSQL-USQL is a high level SQL interface for Common Lisp which is
+based on the CommonSQL package from Xanalys. It was originally
+developed at Onshore Development, Inc. based on Pierre Mai's MaiSQL
+package. It now incorporates some of the code developed for CLSQL. See
+the files CONTRIBUTORS and COPYING for more details.
+
+CLSQL-USQL depends on the low-level database interfaces provided by
+CLSQL and includes both a functional and an object oriented
+interface to SQL RDBMS. 
+
+DOCUMENTATION 
+
+A CLSQL-USQL tutorial can be found in the directory doc/
+
+Also see the CommonSQL documentation avaialble on the Lispworks website:

+
+
+PREREQUISITES
+
+  o COMMON LISP: currently CMUCL, SBCL, Lispworks 
+  o RDBMS: currently Postgresql, Mysql, Sqlite 
+  o ASDF (from http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/cclan/asdf/)
+  o CLSQL-2.0.0 or later (from http://clsql.b9.com)
+  o RT for running the test suite (from http://files.b9.com/rt/rt.tar.gz)
+
+
+INSTALLATION 
+
+Just load clsql-usql.asd or put it somewhere where ASDF can find it
+and call:
+
+(asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :clsql-usql)
+
+You'll then need to load a CLSQL backend before you can do anything. 
+
+To run the regression tests load clsql-usql-tests.asd or put it
+somewhere where ASDF can find it, edit the file tests/test-init.lisp
+and set the following variables to appropriate values:
+
+    *test-database-server*
+    *test-database-name*
+    *test-database-user*
+    *test-database-password* 
+
+And then call:
+
+(asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :clsql-usql-tests)
+(usql-tests:test-usql BACKEND)
+
+where BACKEND is the CLSQL database interface to use (currently one of
+:postgresql, :postgresql-socket, :sqlite or :mysql).
