+The G15daemon is a userspace driver/multiplexer for the keyboard and its LCD,
+using libg15 for low-level keyboard control. Some features of g15daemon are:
+1. Allows all extra G15 keys to be used in applications.
+2. It allows for multiple simultaneous LCD clients.
+3. Virtualises the LCD, the user can select which application is displayed with a simple keypress.
+4. Clients talk to the daemon via a simple protocol.
+5. Client applications have full control over LCD backlight and contrast.
+
+See README.SLACKWARE for additional setup information.
+
+This requires libg15 and libg15render.
