======== Requirements

GNOME 2.0 through 2.10 (www.gnome.org)

======== Notes and changes for this release

  • Pulled original applet out of GNOME 2.8 so that 2.10 users can have their flexible drive mount applet back.
     How did they allow such loss of usability of this applet between
     2.8 and 2.10? Simple, someone decided to rewrite it from scratch
     and decided for us that all removable devices must be in the list
     (or none, there is no just 'this' device option). In addition all
     devices now use the same icon with no way to change it! Oo

======== Installation

Compilation: ./configure ; make
Install: make install
Removal: make uninstall

======== Description / Features

The original drive mount applet that was a part of the gnome-applets package through GNOME 2.8, for 2.10 they decided to rewrite it and drop usability. (sigh)

======== Documentation (brief)

Place neat usage description here.
