+     "S-Lang is a multi-platform programmer's library designed to allow a
+developer to create robust multi-platform software. It provides facilities
+required by interactive applications such as display/screen management,
+keyboard input, keymaps, and so on. The most exciting feature of the library
+is the slang interpreter that may be easily embedded into a program to make it
+extensible. While the emphasis has always been on the embedded nature of the
+interpreter, it may also be used in a stand-alone fashion through the use of
+slsh, which is part of the S-Lang distribution.")
