+
+[description]
+An open-source GOG.com downloader for Linux users which uses the same API as the official GOGDownloader.
+.PP
+LGOGDownloader can download purchased games, query GOG.com to see if game files have changed, as well as downloading extras such as artwork and manuals. It is capable of downloading language-specific installers for games where they exist.
+.PP
+These games are currently offered only for the Microsoft Windows\[rg] and Apple OS X\[rg] operating systems. To play these games under GNU/Linux will require a compatibility layer such as Wine. Usage of such a program is outside the scope of this document.
