+     "Flx provides fuzzy matching for emacs a la sublime text.
+The sorting algorithm is a balance between word beginnings (abbreviation)
+and contiguous matches (substring).  The longer the substring match,
+the higher it scores. This maps well to how we think about matching.
+Flx has support for ido (interactively do things) through flx-ido.")
