+This subdirectory contains the Lucid Widget Library (lwlib), which
+provides a uniform interface to a few different X toolkits. The
+library was written by Lucid, Inc and released under the terms of the
+GPL version 1 (or later). It is not considered part of GNU Emacs.
+
+This version of the library differs from the original as described in
+the ChangeLog file. For example, the file "lwlib-int.h" was renamed
+from "lwlib-internal.h" in order to fit in 14 characters, and the
+makefile adjusted to fit in with Emacs's configure script.
