     1.4 +The Xfce Notify Daemon (xfce4-notifyd for short) is a smallish program that
     1.5 +implements the "server-side" portion of the Freedesktop desktop notifications
     1.6 +specification. Applications that wish to pop up a notification bubble in a
     1.7 +standard way can implicitly make use of xfce4-notifyd to do so by sending
     1.8 +standard messages over D-Bus using the org.freedesktop.Notifications interface.
     1.9 +
    1.10 +It's recommended use xfce4-notifyd with a compositing manager running; in that
    1.11 +case xfce4-notifyd will look a bit nicer and will be semi-transparent and will
    1.12 +fade out, and other nice pretty things. This isn't required by any means, of
    1.13 +course.
    1.14 +
    1.15 +
    1.16 +Configuration:
    1.17 +
    1.18 +Run xfce4-notifyd-config to display the settings dialog. There aren't any other
    1.19 +tunables; if you don't see it in the settings dialog, it's not changeable.
    1.20 +
    1.21 +
    1.22 +Theming:
    1.23 +
    1.24 +Xfce4-notifyd uses gtk's standard theming system. You can create new themes by
    1.25 +creating a normal gtkrc file. See the example included themes for details of
    1.26 +how to reference the various widgets present in a normal notification dialog.
    1.27 +You'll want to put your gtkrc file in $HOME/.themes/THEMENAME/xfce4-notify-4.0
    1.28 +and then start up the configuration dialog to set the theme. If you think
    1.29 +you've come up with a cool theme, feel free to send it to the author, and he'll
    1.30 +be happy to include it in the next release. For themes shipped with
    1.31 +xfce4-notifyd, author requires all parts of them to be redistributable under
    1.32 +the terms of a license compatible with the GPLv2.
