+This mod adds a number of decorative and functional blocks to Minetest,
-===========
+including cement, rainbow blocks, a new way to craft wool, "evil" blocks and
+sticks, and the usual collection of tools of various strengths and speeds made
+from either cement or "evil" components.
 
-My form of Nekogloop's gloopblocks mod
+Crafting
+
+(Unless explicitly mentioned, ingredients can go anywhere in the crafting grid
+in these recipes).
+
+* Rainbow Blocks can be crafted by putting one each of red, orange, yellow,
+  green, blue, and violet dyes plus one stone and one Mese Crystal into the
+  crafting grid.  Yields 1, works with Unified Dyes as well as the game's
+  default dyes.
+
+* Three of those can be crafted to form one pop tart cat rainbow, or nine can
+  be crafted together to form one pop tart cat itself.
+
+* Wet cement is crafted from a bucket of water and a block of gravel.  This
+  can be cooked into dried cement, which can be crafted into tools or back
+  into gravel.
+
+* An "evil" stick can be crafted from one lump of coal, one regular stick, and
+  one lump of Kalite from the Gloop Ores mod.
+
+* Four of those can be crafted into an "evil" block, which can also be crafted
+  back to "evil" sticks.  These blocks emit a small amount of light.
+
+* Cement tools are crafted in the usual manner, using cement blocks for the
+  tool heads instead of the usual steel, cobble, etc.
+
+* "Evil" tools can be crafted using the same standard recipes as for other
+  tools, substitution "evil" sticks for the handles and "evil" blocks for the
+  tool heads.
+
+* Regular sticks can be crafted back into wood blocks by placing four of them
+  in a square.
+
+* Cement and "evil" blocks can also be crafted into various stairs and slabs,
+  following the same recipes as with other stairs and slabs.  Evil stairs and
+  slabs emit a small amount of light.
+
+* Pavement (as for roads or parking lots) can be crafted by placing wet cement
+  ("W") and basalt ("B") into the crafting grid in a 3x3 checkerboard (yields
+  5):
+	W B W
+	B W B
+	W B W
+
+  (you can also swap wet cement and basalt, using five and four portions,
+  respectively)
+
+Other useful stuff:
+-------------------
+
+* Cobblestone turns to mossy cobblestone in the presence of water (either
+  flowing or not).
+
+* When water and lava come into contact with one another, they will form one
+  of three materials:  Flowing lava coming into contact with standing water
+  forms basalt, both flowing into one another form pumice, while standing lava
+  forms obsidian when in contact with flowing or standing water.  Note that if
+  you're using this along with the standard minetest_game repository dated
+  March 9 or later, this function no longer works, because the game provides a
+  similar, less capable function.
