 # Linux
 
-Linux dependencies. OSX users already have these after installing Xcode.
+Dependencies:
 
 	sudo apt-get install make gcc bison git python python-setuptools
+	sudo easy_install pip
 
+The assembler used is [**rgbds**](https://github.com/bentley/rgbds).
 
-Set up the **pokecrystal** repository:
+	git clone git://github.com/bentley/rgbds.git
+	cd rgbds
+	sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/man/man{1,7}
+	sudo make install
+	cd ..
+
+Set up the repository.
 
 	git clone git://github.com/kanzure/pokecrystal.git
 	cd pokecrystal
+	git submodule init
+	git submodule update
+	sudo pip install -r extras/requirements.txt
 
-	./init.sh
+- Copy your Pokémon Crystal rom to the directory. Name it **baserom.gbc**.

-Now you should be able to build **pokecrystal.gbc** for the first time.
+To build **pokecrystal.gbc**:
 
 	make
 
-Your first build may take about 30 seconds. Subsequent builds are much faster (2-10 seconds).
+This should take about 30 seconds.

+
+If you have Xcode already, you can get Command Line Tools with:
+
+	xcode-select --install
 
 
 # Windows
 
-Not yet.
+It's recommended that you use a virtual machine running Linux or OS X.
+
+If you insist on Windows, use [**Cygwin**](http://cygwin.com/install.html) (32-bit).
+
+Dependencies are downloaded in the installer rather than the command line.
+Select the following packages:
+* make
+* git
+* python
+* python-setuptools
+* libsasl2
+* ca-certificates
+
+To install rgbds, extract the contents of
+**http://iimarck.us/etc/rgbds.zip**
+and put them in `C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin`.
+
+Then set up the repository. In the **Cygwin terminal**:
+
+	git clone git://github.com/kanzure/pokecrystal.git
+	cd pokecrystal
+	git submodule init
+	git submodule update
+	sudo easy_install pip
+	sudo pip install -r extras/requirements.txt
