+ (description
+ "Entrez Direct (EDirect) is a method for accessing the National Center
+for Biotechnology Information's (NCBI) set of interconnected
+databases (publication, sequence, structure, gene, variation, expression,
+etc.) from a terminal. Functions take search terms from command-line
+arguments. Individual operations are combined to build multi-step queries.
+Record retrieval and formatting normally complete the process.
+
+EDirect also provides an argument-driven function that simplifies the
+extraction of data from document summaries or other results that are returned
+in structured XML format. This can eliminate the need for writing custom
+software to answer ad hoc questions.")
