Making README a product

Generated by simply copying README.org.  The trick of making README a
symbolic link was, well, a trick, and seems to confuse poor Gitlab.

+* Overview
+
+  Geiser is a generic Emacs/Scheme interaction mode, featuring an
+  enhanced REPL and a set of minor modes improving Emacs' basic scheme
+  major mode. The main functionalities provided are:
+
+    - Evaluation of forms in the namespace of the current module.
+    - Macro expansion.
+    - File/module loading.
+    - Namespace-aware identifier completion (including local bindings,
+      names visible in the current module, and module names).
+    - Autodoc: the echo area shows information about the signature of
+      the procedure/macro around point automatically.
+    - Jump to definition of identifier at point.
+    - Access to documentation (including docstrings when the
+      implementation provides it).
+    - Listings of identifiers exported by a given module.
+    - Listings of callers/callees of procedures.
+    - Rudimentary support for debugging (list of
+      evaluation/compilation error in an Emacs' compilation-mode
+      buffer).
+    - Support for inline images in schemes, such as Racket, that treat
+      them as first order values.
+
+   NOTE: if you're not in a hurry, Geiser's website
+   (http://www.nongnu.org/geiser/) contains a nicer manual, also
+   included in Geiser tarballs as a texinfo file (doc/geiser.info).
+
+* Requirements
+
+    Geiser needs Emacs 23.2 or better, and at least one of the
+    supported scheme implementations:
+      - Guile 2.2 or better.
+      - PLT Racket 6.0 or better.
+      - Chicken 4.8.0 or better.
+      - MIT/GNU Scheme 9.1.1 or better.
+      - Chibi 0.7.3 or better.
+      - Chez 9.4 or better.
+
+* Installation
+
+  The easiest way is to use MELPA, and just type
+  =M-x package-install RET geiser= inside emacs.
+
+  Geiser can be used either directly from its uninstalled source tree
+  or byte-compiled and installed after performing the standard
+  configure/make/make install dance.  See the INSTALL file for more details.
+
+** Chicken Addendum
+    These steps are necessary to fully support Chicken Scheme, but are
+    not required for any other scheme.
+
+    - Install the necessary support eggs:
+
+#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
+     $ chicken-install -s apropos chicken-doc
+#+END_EXAMPLE
+
+    - Update the Chicken documentation database:
+
+#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
+     $ cd `csi -p '(chicken-home)'`
+     $ curl http://3e8.org/pub/chicken-doc/chicken-doc-repo.tgz | sudo tar zx
+#+END_EXAMPLE
+
+* Basic configuration
+
+  The loading invocations above install all supported Scheme
+  implementations. You can list explicitly the ones that you want by
+  setting the variable =geiser-active-implementations= *before* loading
+  geiser.el. For instance:
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC elisp
+    (setq geiser-active-implementations '(chicken guile))
+#+END_SRC
+
+  On opening a scheme file, Geiser will try to guess its Scheme,
+  defaulting to the first in the list. Use =C-c C-s= to select the
+  implementation by hand (on a per file basis).
+
+  Check the geiser customization group for some options with:
+
+#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
+      M-x customize-group RET geiser RET
+#+END_EXAMPLE
+
+  In particular, customize =geiser-<impl>-binary=, which should point
+  to an executable in your path.
+
+  To start a REPL, =M-x geiser=.
+
+** Completion with company-mode
+
+    Geiser offers identifier and module name completion, bound to
+    =M-TAB= and =M-`= respectively. Only names visible in the current
+    module are offered.
+
+    While that is cool and all, things are even better: if you have
+    [[http://company-mode.github.io/][company mode]] installed, Geiser's completion will use it. Just
+    require company-mode and, from then on, any new scheme buffer or
+    REPL will use it.
