+=========================
+2012 (C) The Lemon Man
+
+A lightweight bar based on XCB (yay). Provides foreground/background color
+switching along with text alignment (screw you dzen!), nothing less and 
+nothing more.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+Change the config.h file and you're good to go!
+The text background and foreground are respectively the first and the second
+entries in the palette (COLOR0 and COLOR1).
+
+Text formatting
+---------------
+All the format commands are preceded by a backslash (\\). 
+To draw a backslash just backslash escape it (\\\\). 
+
+```
+f<0-9>  Selects the text foreground color from the palette.
+b<0-9>  Selects the text background color from the palette.
+
+l       Aligns the text to the left.
+c       Aligns the text to the center.
+r       Aligns the text to the right.
+```
