+      (description "@code{general.el} provides a more convenient method for
+binding keys in emacs (for both evil and non-evil users).  Like
+@code{use-package}, which provides a convenient, unified interface for
+managing packages, @code{general.el} is intended to provide a convenient,
+unified interface for key definitions.  While this package does implement some
+completely new functionality (such as the ability to make vim-style
+keybindings under non-prefix keys with an optional timeout), its primary
+purpose is to build on existing functionality to make key definition more
+clear and concise.  @code{general-define-key} is user-extensible and supports
+defining multiple keys in multiple keymaps at once, implicitly wrapping key
+strings with (@code{kbd ...}), using named prefix key sequences (like the
+leader key in vim), and much more.")
