+[I] program to handle thinkpad special keys
+
+[T]  TPB is a little program that enables you to use the IBM ThinkPad(tm)
+[T] special keys.
+[T] With TPB it is possible to bind a program to the ThinkPad, Mail, Home and
+[T] Search button. TPB can also run a callback program on each state change
+[T] with the changed state and the new state as options. So it is possible to
+[T] trigger several actions on different events. TPB has a on-screen display
+[T] (OSD) to show volume, mute, brightness and some other informations.
+[T] Furthermore TPB supports a software mixer, as the R series ThinkPads have
+[T] no hardware mixer to change the volume.
