+ (description
+ "The GNU plotutils package contains software for both programmers and
+technical users. Its centerpiece is libplot, a powerful C/C++ function
+library for exporting 2-D vector graphics in many file formats, both vector
+and raster. It can also do vector graphics animations.
+
+libplot is device-independent in the sense that its API (application
+programming interface) does not depend on the type of graphics file to be
+exported.
+
+Besides libplot, the package contains command-line programs for plotting
+scientific data. Many of them use libplot to export graphics.")
