+ SHORT="HAM radio equipment control libraries."
+cat << EOF
+
+The HAM radio equipment control libraries, Hamlib for short, allow you to
+write amateur radio equipment control programs for transceivers which use CAT
+or similar computer interfaces for control.
+
+Hamlib is a development effort to provide a consistent interface for
+programmers wanting to incorporate radio control in their programs. Hamlib is
+not a complete user application, rather, it is a software layer intended to
+make controlling various radios and other shack hardware much easier. Hamlib
+will allow authors of such software as logging programs, digital
+communications programs, or those wanting to develop the ultimate radio
+control software to concentrate on the user interface and the basic function
+of the program rather than radio control.
