-A MOAB reader plugin for VTK.  This plugin hasn't been tested
-extensively or used recently, so it may or may not be functional.
+A MOAB reader plugin for VTK/Paraview.  To build:
+- download and build Paraview from www.paraview.org
+- run 'ccmake .'; point MOAB_DIR to the MOAB install location, and ParaView_DIR to
+  THE PARAVIEW BUILD DIRECTORY (NOT the ParaView source directory); specifically, this is
+  the directory containing the ParaViewConfig.cmake file.  Configure, then generate.
+- run make; this should compile a 'libvtkMOABReader.so' shared library file, which serves
+  as a ParaView plugin
+- to read into ParaView, select Tools->Manage Plugins, then "Load New...", pointing it at
+  the libvtkMOABReader.so file; to read that plugin every time you start ParaView, expand
+  the '+' next to the plugin name and check the "Auto Load" box
+- you should now be able to read files using MOAB
