+libsigc++ -- The Typesafe Callback Framework for C++
+
+
+General information:
+
+   libsigc++ implements a typesafe callback system for standard C++. It
+   allows you to define signals and to connect those signals to any
+   callback function, either global or a member function, regardless of
+   whether it is static or virtual.
+
+   libsigc++ is used by gtkmm to wrap the GTK+ signal system. It does not
+   depend on GTK or gtkmm.
+
+   Further information about the major release 2.0 is available on the
+   libsigc++ project home page: http://libsigc.sourceforge.net/
+
+
+License information:
+
+   Distribution of library and components is under the LGPL as listed in the
+   file COPYING. Examples and tests are Public Domain.

+
+Compatibility:
+
+   Compatible compilers must supports the following recent c++ techniques:
+   * Partial template (function) specialization.
+   * Explicit template (member) function instantiation.
+   * Treat void return as normal return.
+
+   This release has only been tested with gcc-3.3. It should at least also compile with:
+   * gcc >= 3.2
+   * cygwin (gcc >= 3.2)
+   * mingw32
+   * Microsoft Visual Studio .Net 2003
+   * Sun Forte C++ compiler >= 5.5
+   * Compaq C++ compiler
+   * Intel compiler
+   Please report any troubles you encounter with these compilers!
+   You are also invited to try a compiler that is not listed above.
