+ (description
+ "Libptytty is a small C/C++ library to manage pseudo-ttys in a uniform way,
+created out of frustration over the many differences of PTY/TTY handling in
+different operating systems.
+
+In addition to mere PTY/TTY management, it supports updating the session
+database at @file{utmp}, and @file{wtmp}/@file{lastlog} for login shells.
+
+It also supports @code{fork}ing after start-up and dropping privileges in the
+calling process. This reduces the potential attack surface: if the calling
+process were to be compromised by the user starting the program, there would be
+less to gain, as only the helper process is running with privileges (e.g.,
+@code{setuid}/@code{setgid}).")
