-     "bc is an arbitrary precision numeric processing language. Syntax
-is similar to C, but differs in many substantial areas. It supports
-interactive execution of statements.  bc is a utility included in the
-POSIX P1003.2/D11 draft standard.

-Since the POSIX document does not specify how bc must be implemented,
-this version does not use the historical method of having bc be a
-compiler for the dc calculator.  This version has a single executable
-that both compiles the language and runs the resulting `byte code'. The
-byte code is not the dc language.")
