-PARAVIS module
+Building and installing PARAVIS module
+===============================================
+
+PARAVIS is a light SALOME module that wraps ParaView GUI and makes it available in
+SALOME GUI.
+
+As any other SALOME module, PARAVIS requires PARAVIS_ROOT_DIR environment variable to be set to PARAVIS
+installation directory.
+
+Specific prerequisites:
+- cmake 2.4.5 or higher should be installed, path to cmake executable
+should be added to PATH environment variable.
+- ParaView-3.4.0, both the build directory and the source files
+
+Environment variables needed for correct detection of ParaView location:
+- PVSRCHOME - points at the root of ParaView source directory tree
+- PVINSTALLHOME - points at the top of ParaView build tree (currently, due to some drawbacks in its buld procedure
+ParaView should not be installed, its build directory is used instead).
+
+It also requires common SALOME environment including GUI_ROOT_DIR and
+other standard SALOME prerequsites.
+
+As soon as the environment is set, execute the following commands in a shell:
+
+mkdir PARAVIS_BUILD
+cd PARAVIS_BUILD
+../PARAVIS_SRC/build_configure
+../PARAVIS_SRC/configure --prefix=${PARAVIS_ROOT_DIR}
+make 
+make docs
+make install
+
+PARAVIS module can be launched using the following commands:
+
+- Light SALOME configuration
+
+runLightSalome.sh --modules="PARAVIS"
+
+or
+
+- Full SALOME configuration
+
+runSalome --modules="PARAVIS"
