+GVFS plugin for Tux Commander
+ Version: 0.0.5
+ Release date: 2008-Sep-03
+
+Copyright (C) 2008 Tomas Bzatek <tbzatek@users.sourceforge.net>
+http://tuxcmd.sourceforge.net
+
+
+Requirements:
+ - glib2 library at least version 2.16.0
+ - gvfs daemon and backends available in the system
+ (check your distribution for gvfs packages)
+
+
+This is the GVFS module for Tux Commander file manager. It's built on top of
+the GVFS daemon, which is an integral part of Gnome Desktop since version 2.22.
+It provides access to many type of resources such as network shares
+(FTP, SSH/SFTP, SMB, WebDAV), bluetooth devices (ObexFTP), cameras and portable
+players (gphoto2) and others. Both plugin and the gvfs library are pretty stable
+for production use at their current versions.
+
+
+Feature highlights:
+ * read/write access to network resources (FTP, SSH/SFTP, SMB, WebDAV)
+
+To be implemented:
+ * support for appending
+ * authentication improvements (needs new VFS API)
+
+
+The current VFS implementation in Tux Commander lacks some extended features
+for both archiving and remote filesystems. This is one of the main goals for
+the 0.6.x series.
+
+For successful compilation you will need working gcc compiler and glib2
+library installed with development files.
+
+Compilation has been tested with gcc compiler v4.3.1
