+cat << EOF
+Nickle is a programming language based prototyping environment with powerful
+programming and scripting capabilities. Nickle supports a variety of 
datatypes,
+especially arbitrary precision numbers. The programming language vaguely
+resembles C. Some things in C which do not translate easily are different,
+some design choices have been made differently, and a very few features are
+simply missing.
+
+Nickle provides the functionality of UNIX bc, dc and expr in
+much-improved form. It is also an ideal environment for prototyping complex
+algorithms. Nickle's scripting capabilities make it a nice replacement for
+spreadsheets in some applications, and its numeric features nicely complement
+the limited numeric functionality of text-oriented languages such as AWK
+and PERL.  Nickle encourages (but does not require) the developer to use
+type declarations in programming and on the command line, to allow static
+type checking. Nickle backs this up with full run-time type checking.
+
+The numeric datatypes within Nickle make it a good choice for the design
+and implementation of numeric algorithms. Nickle provides three numeric
+data types: arbitrary precision integers, arbitrary-precision rationals and
+unbounded floating-point "reals" with specifiable precision. These datatypes
+permit computations which would be difficult or impossible using fixed format
+numeric datatypes.
+
+Along with the basic numeric datatypes, Nickle includes multi-dimensional
+arrays, strings, structures, tagged unions and pointers.
+
+Nickle provides support for parallel computation via a simple thread model,
+along with ancilary datatypes like semaphores and mutexes. These provide an
+excellent environment for parallel algorithm development.
+
+Nickle also has features inspired by modern languages like Modula 3, ML and
+Java, such as typed exceptions, first class functions and aggregate values,
+tagged unions and continuations. In particular, functional programming
+is reasonably well supported by the language. Still to be implemented is
+parametric polymorphism and more ADT support.
