+    (description
+     "@code{neosnippet}, is a plugin for Vim which adds snippet support to Vim.
+Snippets are small templates for commonly used code that you can fill in on
+the fly.  To use snippets can increase your productivity in Vim a lot.
+The functionality of this plug-in is quite similar to plug-ins like
+@code{snipMate.vim} or @code{snippetsEmu.vim}.  But since you can choose
+snippets with the neocomplcache / neocomplete interface, you might have less
+trouble using them, because you do not have to remember each snippet name.")
