       <h2>Running Isabelle with ProofGeneral</h2>
     
-      <p>On Linux, Isabelle can be started by two scripts located in
-      <tt class="shellcmd">Isabelle/bin</tt>: <tt class="shellcmd">Isabelle</tt> and <tt class="shellcmd">isabelle</tt>.
-      <tt class="shellcmd">Isabelle</tt> attempts to start ProofGeneral with XEmacs, and isabelle
-      starts it in an SML shell session. However Windows treats the two names as
-      one. To get around this, just rename <tt class="shellcmd">/opt/Isabelle/bin/isabelle</tt> to
-      <tt class="shellcmd">/opt/Isabelle/bin/Isabelle</tt>. This script
-      will start Isabelle with ProofGeneral; the <tt class="shellcmd">isabelle</tt>
-      script in any case is available as <tt class="shellcmd">isabelle-process</tt>.</p>
