+RUNNING A TEST PROGRAM
+
+A trivial test program is included in the yaz4.jar, you can invoke it to check
+the sanity of your yaz4j compilation/installation. On Windows, the YAZ/bin 
+directory (default "C:\Porgam Files\YAZ\bin", if you are using YAZ installer) 
+MUST be on the PATH, otherwise dependent shared libraries will fail to load. 
+Run:
+
+  java -Djava.library.path=/path/to/yaz4j/dll/or/so/dir -jar any/target/yaz4j.jar
+
+Where "/path/to/yaz4j/dll/or/so/dir" points to the directory containing the
+native yaz4j libary (Windows -> yaz4j/win32/target, Unix -> yaz4j/unix/target).
+You can omit this flag, if your yaz4j.dll/so is already available on the 
+library path.
