+Building lookuplet
+------------------

+Look at the INSTALL file for build instructions.

+
+GNOME Note
+----------
+
+Originally this program was a GNOME applet that lived in the GNOME
+toolbar. Then I decided that sitting around consuming large amounts of
+memory waiting while doing nothing wasn't such a good idea. So I modified
+the code to operate as a standalone program (and added the selection
+grabbing which turned out to be way more useful anyway).
+
+However, the code difference is extremely small and there are some
+vestiges in the build framework that support building and installing
+lookuplet as an applet. If someone were keen enough on having applet
+support, it would be pretty easy to make that a compile-time configuration
+option.
