== Use

src/ contains the default directory structure for RISE projects,

including the framework itself. Copy this directory for each project,

and modify the contents of the "src" folder. Then, run "runner.rb"

== Demo

Run "rake demo" to select from a list of demos. Use "rake demo[n]" to

run demo n (numbers are shown when running "rake demo")

== Developing

src/lib/ contains the main part of the framework.

test/ contains a testbed. Running test.sh copies the current contents 

of src/ into test/, then runs the test application. Note that becuase 

the framework includes a default src/main.rb, the test application 

stores its main.rb in test/new_main.rb. Make any changes there.
