+    (description
+     "@code{GLDEX} offers fitting algorithms corresponding to two major
+objectives.  One is to provide a smoothing device to fit distributions to data
+using the weighted and unweighted discretised approach based on the bin width
+of the histogram.  The other is to provide a definitive fit to the data set
+using the maximum likelihood and quantile matching estimation.  Other methods
+such as moment matching, starship method, and L moment matching are also
+provided.  Diagnostics on goodness of fit can be done via qqplots, KS-resample
+tests and comparing mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis of the data with the
+fitted distribution.")
