+If you symlink it to ~/.sage/init.sage, the sample init.sage file will
+load this stuff into your session when Sage starts. It assumes that
+this repository lives at either ~/src/sage.d or ~/src/sage.d.git, but
+that's easy to change. More likely though you will want to copy/paste
+the relevant parts into your own personal (preexisting) init.sage.
 
 Newer versions of Sage don't load ~/.sage/init.sage during test mode,
-and "packages" need to be imported explicitly. Therefore the test
-suite is a little tricky to run; but "make check" should work.
