+Building LLD
+============
+
+1. Check out LLVM and LLD from the LLVM SVN repository (or Git mirror),
+#. run ``cmake`` as usual,
+#. open LLVM.sln with Visual Studio, and
+#. build ``lld`` target in ``lld executables`` folder
+
+Alternatively, you can use msbuild if you don't like to work in an IDE::
+
+  msbuild LLVM.sln /m /target:"lld executables\lld"
+
+MSBuild.exe had been shipped as a component of the .NET framework, but since
+2013 it's part of Visual Studio. You can find it at "C:\\Program Files
+(x86)\\msbuild".
