-Then you can edit the pom.xml with informations specific to the project. 
-In particular, the name of the project is used by the Eclipse IDE to index
-the project.
+Simply add the jar file into the "plugins" directory of ImageJ or Fiji.
+Then a new option "Region Boundary Polygons" is available in the 
+"Plugins -> LabelMaps Utils" menu.
+
+The plugins displays a dialog that allows to choose the connectivity to use 
+(can be either 4 or 8), and the pattern of the names of the regions to create.
+Default name pattern is "r%03d", generating region names like "r000", "r001"...
+When a given region is bounded by several boundaries (regions with holes, 
+or regions with multiple disconnected parts), names are suffixed by the
+boundary index: "r023-0", "r023-1".
 
-A sample plugin file is provided in `src/main/java/net.ijt/DemoPlugin.java` file.
