 ## Install
 
-- Run cmake with the `GTSAM_INSTALL_CYTHON_TOOLBOX` cmake flag enabled to configure building the wrapper. The wrapped module will be built and copied to the directory defined by `GTSAM_CYTHON_INSTALL_PATH`, which is by default `<PROJECT_BINARY_DIR>/cython` in Release mode and `<PROJECT_BINARY_DIR>/cython<CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE>` for other modes.
