+ "This package simulates continuous distributions of random vectors using
+@dfn{Markov chain Monte Carlo} (MCMC). Users specify the distribution by an R
+function that evaluates the log unnormalized density. Algorithms are random
+walk Metropolis algorithm (function @code{metrop}), simulated
+tempering (function @code{temper}), and morphometric random walk
+Metropolis (function @code{morph.metrop}), which achieves geometric ergodicity
+by change of variable.")
