+    (description
+     "This package provides an interface for working with large matrices
+stored in files, not in computer memory.  It supports multiple non-character
+data types (double, integer, logical and raw) of various sizes (e.g.  8 and 4
+byte real values).  Access to parts of the matrix is done by indexing, exactly
+as with usual R matrices.  It supports very large matrices; the package has
+been tested on multi-terabyte matrices.  It allows for more than 2^32 rows or
+columns, ad allows for quick addition of extra columns to a filematrix.")
