+To build Mesa with SCons on Linux or Windows do
+</p>
+<pre>
+    scons
+</pre>
+<p>
+The build output will be placed in
+build/<i>platform</i>-<i>machine</i>-<i>debug</i>/..., where <i>platform</i> is for
+example linux or windows, <i>machine</i> is x86 or x86_64, optionally followed
+by -debug for debug builds.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The sample programs are built seperately. To build them do
+<pre>
+    scons -C progs
+</pre>
+And the build output will be placed in progs/build/...

+<p>
+To build Mesa with SCons for Windows on Linux using the MinGW crosscompiler toolchain do

+    scons -C progs platform=windows toolchain=crossmingw machine=x86 -k
