+Valkyrie is an open-source graphical user interface for Valgrind.
+Valkyrie uses the Qt widget library and is based on Valgrind`s XML
+output capabilities. Valkyrie is designed for simplicity and ease
+of use while allowing access to the full range of Valgrind command
+line options. Currently, Valkyrie only supports Memcheck, although
+work is in progress to handle Cachegrind and Massif.
+
+Also included in Valkyrie is an auxiliary tool which can read XML
+outputs from multiple Valgrind (Memcheck) runs, merge them into a
+single XML file, and optionally display the merged result in the GUI.
+
+This requires valgrind and qt3 from /extra/kde3-compat/ on the Slackware
+mirror or cdrom set.
