-README for Openbox:

+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

-	data/		- this holds the default data files that Openbox
-                          requires for proper operation.

+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

-	doc/		- this holds the documentation files that explain
-	                  the various aspects of Openbox.
-
-	nls/		- this holds the message files used to generate
-			  message catalogs for different languages.
-
-	src/		- this holds the actual C++ source code for the window
-			  manager.
-
-	util/		- this holds source code for small utility programs
-			  that help Openbox do what it does best.
-
-
-Quick Start:
-------------
-The quickest and easiest way to get Openbox up and running is to run the
-following commands:
-
-% cd openbox-x.x.x
-% ./configure
-% make
-% su -c 'make install'
-
-This will configure, compile and install Openbox the quickest.  For those
-who like to spend the extra 15 seconds reading ./configure --help, some
-compile time options can be turned on and off before the build.
-
-For general information on GNU's ./configure, see the file INSTALL.
-
-
-Configuring Openbox:
----------------------
-The next thing most users want to do after installing Openbox is to configure
-the colors, fonts, menus, etc. to their liking.  This is covered by the files
-data/README, data/README.menu and data/README.style.  These files give
-detailed information on how to customize your new window manager.
-
-
-Included utilities:
--------------------
-Currently, the only included utilities are a program named bsetroot and a
-script called bsetbg. bsetroot is a replacement for xsetroot, minus a few
-options.  The difference between xsetroot and bsetroot is that bsetroot has
-been coded for multiple screens (e.g. multi-headed displays), where as the
-stock xsetroot is not. The bsetbg script acts as a wrapper for most of the
-popular programs used to set background pixmaps, making it possible
-for styles to provide a machine-independent rootCommand.
-
-
-Third-party utilities:
-----------------------
-Openbox does not handle any keyboard shortcuts; instead it supports a
-communication protocol which allows other programs to handle these and related
-tasks. If you'd like to be able to use keyboard shortcuts with Openbox,
-bbkeys (available at http://bbkeys.sourceforge.net) can provide you with this
-functionality.
-If you're looking for a GUI with which to configure your Openbox menu and/or
-styles, check out http://bbconf.sourceforge.net. bbconf is a QT program that
-does just that, as well as providing a GUI for editing your keybindings for the
-above mentioned bbkeys.
