+========================================================================
+
+This is the GNOME terminal emulator application. gnome-terminal is
+only the shell (menubar, prefs dialog); the terminal emulation ("stuff
+in the middle") comes from the VTE widget.
+
+How it works:
+
+Profiles -
+ all settings are stored in profiles. prefs dialog edits the current
+ profile
+
+Session -
+ just the number of open windows/tabs and their profile is stored
+ per-session
+
+Command line options -
+ do not overlap things that are preferences
+
+========================================================================
+
+POST INSTALL RUN:
+
+bash# killall gconfd-2
+
+The terminal doesn't launch until that is done.
+Have no idea why, if you do please let me know =D
