+There are two softwares here.
+
+One allows you to edit a file describing where faces are in the picture,
+which we call gzv.
+
+The other one allows you to show the picture, zooming in and out between
+faces, which we call movie.
+
+To run gzv, you will need PyGTK, which, in Debian, is installed by the
+python-gtk2 package. Then, run it with python gzv.py.
+
+There is a sample project file named project, with the Debconf8 picture
+and a dots file.
+
+To build movie, you will need GTK+ and GDK-Pixbuf development files. In
+Debian, just install libgtk2.0-dev. Then type make.
+
+To show the picture, just give as parameters to the movie program the
+picture and the dots file.
