Bug Description

These apps need a README or INSTALL file that details how to compile and install them from source. Some of these apps have a README or INSTALL file, but are not detailed enough, do not contain certain steps, or are otherwise inadequate. These files should loosely follow this format:

Dependencies
------------
 - libsomething-3.0-dev
 - libsomethingelse-3.0-dev
 - libthis
 - libthat-dev

Testing and installation
------------------------
$ mkdir build
$ cd build/
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ ./appname
