+Motion is a program that monitors the video signal from one or more
+cameras and is able to detect if a significant part of the picture
+has changed. Or in other words, it can detect motion.
+
+Motion is a command line based tool. It has no graphical user
+interface. Everything is setup via the command line or via a set of
+configuration files.
+
+Optional dependencies are ffmpeg and postgresql.
+
+Once installed, please be sure to read /usr/doc/motion-3.2.11/README for
+any configuration help. You will need to rename /etc/motion-dist.conf to
+/etc/motion.conf once you have made the changes you deem necessary.
+
+This build has not been tested with the optional postgresql included, but
+you're welcome to give it a go!
