-API for all possible input sources. However we are not there yet. The
-API is far from set in stone yet, and is likely to change.

+LibGII is based on the concept of input streams, which virtualize
+access to the underlying input drivers. Events from various input
+devices are abstracted into easy-to-use structures. LibGII also

+component from LibGGI, although LibGGI depends on LibGII for input
+purposes.

 release, but you're still very welcome to use LibGII as a standalone
-library for your non-LibGGI applications. Also you might be interrested in
