+LV2 based systems.  Ingen is built around LV2 technology and a strict
+separation of engine from user interface.  The engine is controlled
+exclusively through a protocol, and can execute as a headless process, with an
+in-process GUI, or as an LV2 plugin.  The GUI can run as a program which
+communicates over a Unix or TCP/IP socket, or as an embeddable LV2 GUI which
+communicates via LV2 ports.  Any saved Ingen graph can be loaded as an LV2
+plugin on any system where Ingen is installed.  This allows users to visually
+develop custom plugins for use in other applications without programming.")
