+VNC 4 Source Distribution for Windows platforms
+=============================================
+
+VNC 4 is Copyright RealVNC Ltd. 2002-2004. This software is
+distributed under the GNU General Public Licence as published by the
+Free Software Foundation. See the accompanying licence.txt file for
+the conditions under which the software is made available.
+
+VNC 4 also contains code from other sources. See the Acknowledgements
+section below, and the individual files for details of the conditions
+under which they are made available.
+
+The source tree contains a number of directories, and is most easily
+built by loading the VNC workspace file (vnc.dsw) into Microsoft
+Visual Studio 6/7. This will preserve the required dependencies
+between the sub-projects.
+
+There are three main executable projects:
+
+ vncviewer - The VNC Viewer for Win32.
+
+ winvnc - The VNC Server for Win32 (command-line operation
+ only).
+
+ vncconfig - The configuration applet and GUI front-end for VNC
+ Server.
+
+These projects are designed to be built using Microsoft Visual C++
+6.0, and should also compile with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
+(version 7). Other compilers have not been tested but the code base
+is extremely portable.
