[Documentation / History of clapper] Perhaps an entry to the main README or a link to the history #138

Description

@rubyFeedback

This is a request to add a bit history for clapper. I assume you guys did not start from zero
but had some knowledge already, be it design-related or multimedia-related.

Back when mpv was new-ish, I asked the mpv devs what the difference was to mplayer
and how it was created. They actually added an explanation - that explanation can still
be found on their FAQ. So my question helped add more information! :)

(Although I use mpv most of the time, I still like mplayer too, even if it is now the
dinosaur guy ...)

So perhaps clapper originated from some other project or other ideas. I'd be interested
to hear how it started and what it aims to achieve. I am sure there is some interesting
background story.

This does not need to be in the main README per se; some projects want to keep
the main README clean and to the point, which I can understand. But if someone can
write some paragraph about the background, and then link to it from the main README,
this would be super-interesting - at the least for me, but perhaps also for other folks
who never heard about clapper before. I also normally report asking for more screenshots
but you folks already have plenty screenshots, so there is no point in asking for even
more screenshots. ;)

(Though it would be interesting to hear if this works on windows too but this is a secondary
question; the primary one is the background story of clapper.)
