+I have run BreezySLAM in Matlab on 64-bit Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X. The <b>matlab</b> directory contains all the code you
+need, including pre-compiled binaries for all three operating systems.  To try it out in Matlab, add this directory to your
+path, then change to the <b>examples</b> directory and do
+
+<pre>
+  >> logdemo('exp2', 1)
+</pre> 
+
+If you modify the source code or want to build the binary for a different OS, you can change to the <b>matlab</b> 
+directory and do
+

+  >> make
