+     "Nickle is a programming language based prototyping environment with
+powerful programming and scripting capabilities.  Nickle supports a variety of
+datatypes, especially arbitrary precision numbers.  The programming language
+vaguely resembles C.  Some things in C which do not translate easily are
+different, some design choices have been made differently, and a very few
+features are simply missing.  Nickle provides the functionality of Unix bc, dc
+and expr in a different form.  It is also an ideal environment for prototyping
+complex algorithms.  Nickle's scripting capabilities make it a replacement for
+spreadsheets in some applications, and its numeric features complement the
+limited numeric functionality of text-oriented languages such as AWK and Perl.")
