1.  about

    libButtFace contains parts of the ButtonFace library (version 1.0)
    written by Harald Albrecht, albrecht@igpm.rwth-aachen.de.
    
    what is it?  (cited from the orginal ButtonFaceLib.doc file) 

    The "ButtonFace Library" eases the process of creating pictural
      push buttons as well as pictural labels and message dialogs.
      Pictural push buttons are like ordinary push buttons but they
      show a tiny picture instead of text. This picture may change
      accordingly to the button's actual state (normal, armed or
      insensitive).

2.  source

    the primary source for the ButtonFace Library is

	ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de (137.226.225.3)
        in /pub/packages/ButtonFaceLib/ButtonFaceLib.tar.gz

    if you want to integrate the library into your free software
    please use the orginal version not this incomplete one.

    this version of the library is incomplete !!!

    we include only the library sources and english pixmaps, but not
    the demo sources and documentation. see section 2.1.

3.  copyright and copying conditions

    the software  is copyrighted (c)  1994  by Harald Albrecht.  it is
    distributed  unter terms and conditions of  the GNU general public
    licence. the file ButtonFaceLib.doc  contains the following lines:
    (which can be found in the orginal distribution):

    This software is Free Software. Please refer  to the file COPYING,
    which you  should have received  together this file and the source
    code of the combo box widget.  However if you find this library to
    be usefull, you are encouraged to donate a  reasonable amount to a
    charitable  institution -- there are  enough  people out there who
    need help! Sometimes I  got the strong impression that programmers
    tend to get lost in their own "virtual reality" - sitting in front
    of    their  screen,  hacking  new algorithms    and forget  about
    everything around  them. So please don't  forget about  people who
    need help.
    
4.  what else

    if you think about using  this library with your (free?) software,
    please use the orginal sources and read the orginal documentation.
