Actually, I think those steps (aclocal, etc.) are already in README.CVS. Probably what
would be most helpful is to have step-by-step instructions on the web page where most
folks will find out about the cvs info. What you have there is currently sufficient
for those experienced with CVS, but you may want to add simple steps to follow to set
the CVSROOT, login, and check out the module, and then to run aclocal, autoheader, etc.
Also perhaps instructions for those who would like to use a Windows client like WinCVS
might be helpful....
