+Using the update script
+-----------------------
+There is a shell script (for unix based systems) that does the job for you.
+To use it, unpack the archive of the new Roundcube version to a temporary location
+(don't replace the Roundcube installation you want to update)
+and cd into that directory. From there, run the following command in a shell:
+
+  ./bin/installto.sh <TARGET-FOLDER>
+
+For <TARGET-FOLDER> you specify the path to the Roundcube installation 
+which should be updated. The update script will then copy all new files to the 
+target location and check and update the configuration and database schema.
+After all is done, the temporary folder with the new Roundcube files can be 
+removed again.
