			A RISC OS-like filer for X
			by Thomas Leonard

ROX-Filer is a simple and easy to use graphical file manager for X11, the
windowing system used on Unix and Unix-like operating systems. It is also
the core component of the ROX Desktop:

	http://rox.sourceforge.net

To compile:
	$ ROX-Filer/AppRun --compile

To install:
	$ ./install.sh

To run:
	$ rox

For full instructions, read the Manual.html file:
	$ galeon ROX-Filer/Help/Manual.html

(or use netscape, konqueror, mozilla, w3m or any other browser in place of
galeon)

ROX-Filer was created by Thomas Leonard, but many people have contributed to
it one way or another...

If you think you should be included here then write and tell me ;-)

First, a few people/projects whose work I've used:

	Andrew Clover		most of the file icons
	David MacKenzie		the code for parsing Permissions commands
	John Lindal		co-author of the XDS protocol
	Midnight Commander	the Virtual File System library & pinboard bits
	GNOME Desktop		some of the icons (including the toolbar)

A huge number of people have submitted code, suggestions and encouragement -
many of them are listed in the `Changes' file... thanks!
