+INDI Third Party Device Hardware Drivers
+
+INDI is a distributed control protocol designed to operate astronomical
+instrumentation. INDI is small, flexible, easy to parse, and scalable.
+It supports common DCS functions such as remote control, data
+acquisition, monitoring, and a lot more.
+
+This script builds several third party hardware drivers.
+
+Notes:
+1. Some of the drivers will need additional configuration of their
+ dependencies, e.g. gpsd for GPS devices.
+2. Not all device drivers are implemented yet since their dependencies
+ are not yet available on Slackbuilds.org. This is a work in
+ progress.
