+Sphinx is a full-text search engine, distributed under GPL version 2.
+
+Generally, it's a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast,
+size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other
+applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with
+SQL databases and scripting languages.
+
+mysql_config should be on your path when building, or you will need
+to edit the build script configure command to point to the MySQL
+library and include directories.
