 Create a build-directory in the project root and change into
 that directory:
 ```
-    # mkdir build
-    # cd build
+    mkdir build
+    cd build
 ```
 Run cmake, based on the underlying project:
 ```
-    # cmake ..
+    cmake ..
 ```
 Hopefully, everything went right.
 If not, carefully read the error messages.

 If everything is o.k., run make (on multicore machines, use '-j' to parallelize
 compilation, e.g. 'make -j 4' for up to four parallel jobs):
 ```
-    # make
+    make
 ```
 Now, you should find the 'fastca' binary in the 'src' folder.
