+The goal of Gnumeric is to be the best possible spreadsheet. We are not
+attempting to clone existing applications. However, Gnumeric can read
+files saved with other spreadsheets and we offer a customizable feel
+that attempts to minimize the costs of transition.
+
+In order to compile, intltool (needed to compile, not to run) and
+goffice are required. Both are available on SlackBuilds.org
+
+There are also optional depenencies, the list of which can be found
+here: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/downloads.shtml
