+This is a rebar template designed to create a project like RJ's erlang_rebar_example_project. (https://github.com/RJ/erlang_rebar_example_project).
+
+I'm putting in various tweaks as I feel necessary.
+
+The created project is meant to compile and work out-of-the-box.  I'd have it be an echo server or something but don't have time to spare right now for it.
+
+Usage:
+
+1. Clone this repository into your .rebar/templates directory.  If it doesn't already exist, I think you can do this with the following command line:
+
+git clone https://github.com/robspassky/rebar-project-template.git ~/.rebar/templates 
+
+2. Run it:
+
+rebar create template=project projectid=projectnamehere
+
+3. Sample session:
+
+robspassky@carmine:/tmp$ rebar create template=project projectid=projectnamehere
+==> tmp (create)
