+mtPaint is a painting program which Mark Tyler developed from scratch so he
+could easily create pixel art and manipulate digital photos.
+
+It uses the GTK+ toolkit (version 1 or 2) and runs on PC's via the GNU/Linux or
+Windows operating systems. Due to its efficient design it can run on older PC
+hardware (e.g. a 200MHz CPU and 16MB of free RAM).
+
+mtPaint is free software, which means you are able to freely use, modify and
+distribute it according to the GNU General Public License.
+
+Currently mtPaint is maintained by Dmitry Groshev.
+
+If you want internationalization, pass INTL=yes to the SlackBuild.
+If you want this built as a gtk1 app, pass GTK1=yes; else it will be gtk2.
+If you want gtk{1,2} widgets then pass TKWIDGETS=yes; else it will use its own
+file and color selector widgets.
+If you want the handbook installed (about a three meg html book) then pass
+HANDBOOK=yes.
