 General Info
 ------------
-The gnome-main-menu is a set of three utilities.  A gnome-panel applet similar
-to the traditional main-menu but a few addtions and changes.  In particular the
-gnome-main-menu does not provide direct access to all the applications on the
-system, but rather displays user specified "favorites" and recently launched
-applications [1].
-
-Access to all the applications is made through the second of the three
-utilities, the application-browser, which is a larger format application than
-that the traditional main-menu which is managed by the window manager to allow
-for resizing, etc.
-
-The final utility is the gnome-control-center which is laid out exactly as the
-application-browser, but providing access to all the system's configuration
-utilities.
-
-Both the application-browser and the gnome-control-center are accessible
