+  a Nano-X based AWT backend. It uses famous Nano-X library provided
+  by Nano-X Window System (formly known as MicroWindows, the project 
+  has been renamed to The Nano-X Window System, due to conflicts with 
+  the Windows trademark registered by Microsoft.)
+
+  The latest version of Nano-X we developed with is 0.9.0, and it 
+  should be API-compatible with earlier versions.
+
+  The initial Nano-X based AWT backend was written by Exor International 
+  Inc. and Sinby Corporatin in 2001, and we have reviewed their design
+  and implementation to merge in.
+
+  To enable Nano-X based AWT backend, you should also pass the extra
+  two options to configure script, --with-nanox-includes and 
+  --with-nanox-library, to specify the the corresponding Nano-X.
+
+  See http://www.microwindows.org/ for informations on Nano-X.
