+Non is designed to be simple and efficient. Written entirely in C/C++
+for high performance. Non is fast enough to run on low-end
+processors--while other DAWs require huge investments in hardware. The
+NTK toolkit provides lightning fast GUI to all the Non components.
+
+Non is a modular (in the Unix sense) DAW. Other DAWs, even in the
+free-software realm, are large, bloated, and, as a rule,
+monolithic. This goes against the Unix philosophy and fails to take
+full advantage of the power and flexibility of JACK.
+
+MODULES:
+
+The components of Non work together and separately, allowing you
+create a studio tailored to your own needs.
+
+If you want to build only one component of Non, you may pass the name
+of that component to the SlackBuild script as the variable PROJECT.
+For instance:
+
+PROJECT=mixer ./non.SlackBuild
+
+The component names are:
+mixer|sequencer|timeline|session-manager
+
+By default, this SlackBuild builds everything, so the result is a
+complete, traditional DAW-like suite.
