+Warning:  This is a prerelease.  It will probably have some rough edges.
+
+
+INTRODUCTION
+
+LCDproc is a small program that extracts various statistics about your
+machine and displays them on an LCD display.  It works with several types
+and sizes of displays.
+
+Our site is located at http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net/ ... so check
+there first for new versions or updates.  We've got a spot on the web
+site for user's suggestions, and you can e-mail us as well:
+
+choadster@earthlink.net (William W. Ferrell)
+scriven@cs.colostate.edu (Scott Scriven)
+
+INSTALLATION
+
+Refer to the INSTALL file included with this archive for installation
+instructions (including how to connect the LCD to your system).
+
+Also, be sure to EDIT THE Makefile.config before compiling.  It
+contains many configuration options.  (these will be removed as soon
+as LCDproc uses a real config file)
+
+CHANGES
+
+Woow...  a lot.  :)
+
+HELPING OUT
+
+If you get the urge to help out by writing code, feel free to "make todo"
+and find out what needs to be done...  (also, of course, new ideas are
+good too :) 
+
+To add new drivers, read drv_base.h for instructions.
