Added in exported interface table.

NAME
     libunique-1.0 - A library for writing single instance appli-
     cations

DESCRIPTION
     libunique-1.0 is  a  library  for  writing  single  instance
     applications.  If  you  launch a single instance application
     twice, the second instance will exit quietly or will send  a
     message to the running instance.

     libunique-1.0 makes it easy to write these kind of  applica-
     tions, by providing a base class, taking care of all the IPC
     machinery needed to send messages to a running instance, and
     also handling startup notification.

     libunique-1.0 supports two IPC  backends:  bacon  and  dbus.
     When  dbus  is used, the messages are transmitted through D-
     Bus private channel. When bacon is used, libunique-1.0  uses
     PF_UNIX family socket(3head) to allow communications between
     processes on the same machine.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     See environ(5) for descriptions of environment variables.

     UNIQUE_BACKEND  The default backend is dbus. User can  over-
                     ride  the  default  backend  by  setting the
                     UNIQUE_BACKEND environment variable with the
                     name of the desired backend.
