+ (description "@code{Data::Entropy} provides modules relating to
+the generation and use of entropy. The Data::Entropy::Source class
+manages the entropy coming from a particular source. This class acts
+as a layer over a raw entropy source, which may be a normal I/O handle
+or a special-purpose class. The Data::Entropy::RawSource::* classes
+provide fundamental sources of entropy. The sources specially
+supported are an OS-supplied entropy collector, downloads from servers
+on the Internet, and cryptographic fake entropy. The
+Data::Entropy::Algorithms module contains a collection of fundamental
+algorithms that use entropy. There are random number generators and
+functions to shuffle arrays.")
