 cat << EOF
-Generate Recursive-Descent Parsers  
+    RecDescent incrementally generates top-down recursive-descent text
+    parsers from simple yacc-like grammar specifications. It provides:
+
+        * Regular expressions or literal strings as terminals (tokens),
+
+        * Multiple (non-contiguous) productions for any rule,
+
+        * Repeated, optional and alternate subrules within productions,
+
+	* Late-bound (run-time dispatched) subrules
+
+        * Full access to Perl within actions specified as part of the grammar,
+
+        * Simple automated error reporting during parser generation and parsing,
+
+        * The ability to commit to, uncommit to, or reject particular
+          productions during a parse,
+
+        * Incremental extension of the parsing grammar (even during a parse),
+
+	* Precompilation of parser objects,
+
+	* User-definable reduce-reduce conflict resolution via
+	  "scoring" of matching productions.
+
+
+LIMITATIONS
+
+    * There's no support for parsing directly from an input stream.
+
+    * The generator doesn't handle left-recursion.
