+== Installation and Usage ==
+To run the interactive shell, it suffices to launch the included **iat** shell script. IAT is a simple read-eval-print loop: statements are typed at the command line, evaluated and the result is printed to standard output. Note that the log and error traces are piped to the console.
+For an overview of the iat shell options, excute <code>iat --help</code>.
+== Documentation ==
 The [[http://prog.vub.ac.be/amop/at2doc|Javadoc of the Interpreter]] is also online. It provides documentation about the implementation of the interpreter. A design document describing the design of the interpreter will follow soon.
