 === Dependencies ===
+
 run requires some GNU C extensions, render nodes (/dev/dri/renderD128),
 libepoxy, OpenMP, and Mesa configured with --with-egl-platforms=x11,drm
 
 === jemalloc ===
+
 Since run compiles shaders in different threads, malloc/free locking overhead
 from inside Mesa can be expensive. Preloading jemalloc can cut significant
 amounts of time:
 
 LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libjemalloc.so.1 ./run shaders 2> err | tee new-run

+=== Depreciated ===
+
+run.py is obsolete. Use the 'run' binary instead.
