+FotoKilof is a Graphical User Interface for ImageMagick and Wand
+that allows, as alternative to command line approach, the processing
+of pictures and other graphic files in JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and (for
+import) SVG formats.
+
+FotoKilof does not give access to the whole functionality of
+ImageMagick, but it supports most of its usual functions and features,
+so may be useful for users that have no familiarity with the shell
+interface to ImageMagick. Also, the preview features allow to prevent
+errors from accidental overwriting of a number of pictures by setting
+incorrect options to ImageMagick commands, i.e. when users crop or
+resize images.
+
+FotoKilof supports common kinds of graphic conversion like resizing,
+crop, rotation, mirroring, addition of text, logos, borders,
+conversion in other formats, applying of filters or effects (sepia,
+black-white, equalization, contrast increase/decrease, histogram
+stretching, ecc.). For a full information about features and functions
+of FotoKilof please see the home page of the project.
+
+FotoKilof is written in Python and its GUI uses tkinter (already
+included in the Slackware's Python 3 package), the python theme engine
+for Tk, so your system must have the Tk/Tcl platform installed.
+
+The graphic interface supports two different themes: Light (default)
+and Dark. F2 key allows to switch between them at any time.
