+ (description
+ "Parenscript is a translator from an extended subset of Common Lisp to
+JavaScript. Parenscript code can run almost identically on both the
+browser (as JavaScript) and server (as Common Lisp).
+
+Parenscript code is treated the same way as Common Lisp code, making the full
+power of Lisp macros available for JavaScript. This provides a web
+development environment that is unmatched in its ability to reduce code
+duplication and provide advanced meta-programming facilities to web
+developers.
+
+At the same time, Parenscript is different from almost all other \"language
+X\" to JavaScript translators in that it imposes almost no overhead:
+
+@itemize
+@item No run-time dependencies: Any piece of Parenscript code is runnable
+as-is. There are no JavaScript files to include.
+@item Native types: Parenscript works entirely with native JavaScript data
+types. There are no new types introduced, and object prototypes are not
+touched.
+@item Native calling convention: Any JavaScript code can be called without the
+need for bindings. Likewise, Parenscript can be used to make efficient,
+self-contained JavaScript libraries.
+@item Readable code: Parenscript generates concise, formatted, idiomatic
+JavaScript code. Identifier names are preserved. This enables seamless
+debugging in tools like Firebug.
+@item Efficiency: Parenscript introduces minimal overhead for advanced Common
+Lisp features. The generated code is almost as fast as hand-written
+JavaScript.
