+
+History
+-------
+
+Spout was originally written for a handheld by kuni, and soon
+afterwards was ported to Windows using cygwin and sdl and released
+under the MIT license.
+
+In 2004 a 'unix version' was released, which mostly just slapped
+autotools into the windows version and infringed the license.
+
+This is a new unix version, based on the original Windows code by
+kuni, which aims to add useful features and simplify the code.
+
