Getting Started: 
----------------

  How to compile the code:
  ------------------------
  /home> cd TMVA
  /home/TMVA> source setup.[c]sh     // includes TMVA/lib in your lib path
  /home/TMVA> cd src                              
  /home/TMVA/src> make               // comile and bulid the library ../libTMVA.1.so

  How to run the code as ROOT macro: // training/testing of academic example
  ----------------------------------
  /home/TMVA/src> cd ../macros
  /home/TMVA/examples> root -l TMVAnalysis.C  // start the macro     

  --> you are asked to type '1' or '2' (choose '1' and wait a few minutes)
  --> a GUI will pop up: try to click through all plots and see how your
      data sample, its correlations, the trained MVAs and the performance
      look like

  How to run the code as executable: // training/testing of academic example
  ----------------------------------
  /home/TMVA/src> cd ../examples
  /home/TMVA/examples> make
  /home/TMVA/examples> ./TMVAnalysis // run the code

  --> you are asked to type '1' or '2' (choose '1' and wait a few minutes)

  /home/TMVA/examples> root -l ../macros/TMVAGui.C // start the GUI

  --> a GUI will pop up: try to click through all plots and see how your
      data sample, its correlations, the trained MVAs and the performance
      look like

  The directory structure:
  ------------------------
  src/          : the sources for the TMVA library
  lib/          : here you'll find the TMVA library once it is compiled
                  (copy it to you prefered library directory or include
                   this directory in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH as it is done
                   by: source setup.[c]sh
  macros/       : example code of how to use the TMVA library with a ROOT macro
                  uses input data from a Toy Monte Carlo;
                  moreover: handy root macros which read and display the 
                  results produced by TMVAnslysis
  examples/     : example code of how to use the TMVA library in an executable;
                  uses input data from a Toy Monte Carlo
  examples/data : the Toy Monte Carlo data 
  python/       : example code of how to use the TMVA library with a python script;
                  requires avaliability of PyROOT 
  development/  : similar than what you find in examples, but this is our working
                  and testing directory... have a look if you want to get some
                  idea of how to use the TMVA library
