+      "Tools to clean and process text.  Tools are geared at checking for
+substrings that are not optimal for analysis and replacing or removing them
+(normalizing) with more analysis friendly substrings (see Sproat, Black, Chen,
+Kumar, Ostendorf, & Richards (2001) @url{doi:10.1006/csla.2001.0169}) or
+extracting them into new variables.  For example, emoticons are often used in
+text but not always easily handled by analysis algorithms.  The
+@code{replace_emoticon()} function replaces emoticons with word equivalents.")
