+Installing pandoc using Cabal
+=============================
+
+Pandoc can also be installed using the standard Haskell packaging tool,
+[Cabal](http://www.haskell.org/cabal/).  You'll need GHC 6.6 or greater
+(see [Installing GHC](#installing-ghc), above). Just download the source
+tarball, unpack, and type:
+
+    runhaskell Setup.hs configure
+    runhaskell Setup.hs build
+    runhaskell Setup.hs install  # this one as root
+
+This will install the pandoc executable and the Haskell libraries,
+but not the shell scripts, man pages, or other documentation.
