+ "This is an inverse companion to the @code{rx} package for translating
+regexps in string form to the @code{rx} notation. Its chief uses are:
+
+@itemize
+@item Migrating existing code to @code{rx} form, for better readability and
+maintainability
+@item Understanding complex regexp strings and finding errors in them
+@end itemize
+
+In addition to Emacs regexps, this package can also parse and troubleshoot
+skip set strings, which are arguments to @code{skip-chars-forward} and
+@code{skip-chars-backward}.")
