+@code{compsci}, @code{dialogue}, @code{lips}, @code{moredefs}, @code{newclude},
+@code{slemph} and @code{titles}.  Note: The installation follows the suboptimal
+``Quick and dirty'' recipe, rendering some features unavailable.")
+    ;; README mentions an unspecified version of GNU GPL and points to COPYING,
