+Areas mod for Minetest 0.4.8+
+=============================

+
+Configuration
+-------------
+If you wish to specify configuration options, such as whether players are
+allowed to protect their own areas with /protect (Disabled by default), you
+should check config.lua and set the apropriate settings in your minetest.conf.
+
+
+Tutorial
+--------
+To protect an area you must first set the corner positions of the area.
+In order to set the corner positions you run:
+1. "/area\_pos set" punch the two border nodes.
+2. "/area\_pos set1/2" punch only the first or second border node.
+3. "/area\_pos1/2" set position one or two to your current position.
+4. "/area\_pos1/2 X Y Z" set position one or two to the specified coordinates.
+
+Once you have set the border positions you can protect the area by running:
+1. "/set\_owner <OwnerName> <AreaName>"
+	-- If you are a administrator or moderator with the "areas" privilege.
+2. "/protect <AreaName>"
+	-- If the server administraor has enabled area self-protection.
+
+The area name is used so that you can easily find the area that you want when
+using a command like /list\_areas. It is not used for any other purpose.
+For example: /set\_owner SomePlayer Diamond city
+
+Now that you own a area you may want to add sub-owners to it. You can do this
+with the /add\_owner command. Anyone with a area can use the add\_owner
+command on their areas. Before using the add\_owner command you have to select
+the corners of the sub-area as you did for set\_owner. If your markers are
+still around your origional area and you want to grant access to your entire
+area you will not have to re-set them. You can also use select\_area to place
+the markers at the corners of an existing area.
+The add\_owner command expects three arguments:
+1. The id of the parent area. (The area that you want it to be a sub-area of)
+2. The name of the player that will own the sub-area.
+3. The name of the sub-area.
+
+For example: /add\_owner 123 BobTheBuilder Diamond lighthouse
+
