+gtkpod is a platform independent Graphical User Interface for Apple's
+iPod using GTK2. It supports the first to fifth Generation including
+the iPod mini, iPod Photo, iPod Shuffle, iPod nano, and iPod Video.
+
+For more information: http://www.gtkpod.org
+
+This script compiles gtkpod for libgpod 0.4.2. Although Slackware 11
+default install comes with 0.4.0, Pat has recently released a patch
+for libgpod 0.4.2 (in the patches/ directory), so make sure you upgrade
+your libgpod before running this script.
+
+If you would like to add an AAC support to gtkpod, you will have to install
+libmp4v2 library, which can be obtained at SlackBuilds.org as well.
+
+Make sure to install libmp4v2 prior to running gtkpod configure.
+
+Special thanks to Alan Hicks and Robby Workman for advising on the
+appropriate version.
