+cat << EOF
+polypaudio is a sound server for Linux and other Unix like operating systems.
+It is intended to be an improved drop-in replacement for the Enlightened Sound
+Daemon (ESOUND). In addition to the features ESOUND provides polypaudio has:
+
+* Extensible plugin architecture (by loading dynamic loadable modules with
+ dlopen())
+* Support for more than one sink/source
+* Better low latency behaviour
+* Embedabble into other software (the core is available as C library)
+* Completely asynchronous C API
+* Simple command line interface for reconfiguring the daemon while running
+* Flexible, implicit sample type conversion and resampling
+* "Zero-Copy" architecture
+* Module autoloading
+* Very accurate latency measurement for playback and recordin.
+* May be used to combine multiple sound cards to one (with sample rate
+ adjustment)
+* Client side latency interpolation
