+     "This package provides a TeX extension that generates HINT output.  The
+HINT file format is an alternative to the DVI and PDF formats which was
+designed specifically for on-screen reading of documents.  Especially on
+mobile devices, reading DVI or PDF documents can be cumbersome.  Mobile
+devices are available in a large variety of sizes but typically are not large
+enough to display documents formated for a4/letter-size paper.  To compensate
+for the limitations of a small screen, users are used to alternating between
+landscape (few long lines) and portrait (more short lines) mode.  The HINT
+format supports variable and varying screen sizes, leveraging the ability of
+TeX to format a document for nearly-arbitrary values of @code{\\hsize} and
+@code{\\vsize}.")
