+        AutoGen is a tool designed to simplify the creation and maintenance
+        of programs that contain large amounts of repetitious text.  It is
+        especially valuable in programs that have several blocks of text that
+        must be kept synchronized.
+
+        AutoGen can now accept XML files as definition input, in addition to
+        CGI data (for producing dynamic HTML) and traditional AutoGen
+        definitions.
+
+        A common example where this would be useful is in creating and
+        maintaining the code required for processing program options.
+        Processing options requires multiple constructs to be maintained in
+        parallel in different places in your program.  Options maintenance
+        needs to be done countless times.  So, AutoGen comes with an add-on
+        package named AutoOpts that simplifies the maintenance and
+        documentation of program options.
