+
+Youtube Viewer is a dedicated application for searching, viewing, and
+downloading Youtube videos, using wget for downloading and MPlayer for
+viewing. It has been written in Perl and plays videos from Youtube at
+the best quality available without using a flash player.
+
+Optional dependencies:
+
+perl-gtk2 and perl-File-ShareDir - for gtk-youtube-viewer.
+perl-LWP-Protocol-https - for https:// URL support.
+perl-Text-CharWidth - for better formatting in the terminal.
+
+This build always includes the command-line client (youtube-viewer). For
+the GTK client (gtk-youtube-viewer), install perl-gtk2 and
+perl-File-ShareDir before running this script. If you have them installed
+but don't want gtk-youtube-viewer, you can set GTK=no in the script's
+environment.
+
+To force gtk-youtube-viewer to use your preferred terminal for downloading
+with wget and watching in a terminal, set TERMINAL in the script's
+environment (e.g. TERMINAL="xterm" or TERMINAL="urxvt").
