+     "This package provides support for interactive computing sessions with
+e-TeX (or pdfTeX) executed on the command line.  Once @code{xintsession} is
+loaded, e-TeX becomes an interactive computing software capable of executing
+arbitrary precision calculations, or exact calculations with arbitrarily big
+fractions.  It can also manipulate polynomials as algebraic entities.
+Numerical variables and functions can be defined during the session, and each
+evaluation result is stored in automatically labeled variables.  A file is
+automatically created storing inputs and outputs.")
