+cat << EOF
+This is a library for handling page faults in user mode. A page fault occurs
+when a program tries to access to a region of memory that is currently not
+available. Catching and handling a page fault is a useful technique for
+implementing:
+* pageable virtual memory,
+* memory-mapped access to persistent databases,
+* generational garbage collectors,
+* stack overflow handlers,
+* distributed shared memory
