+     "Rserve acts as a socket server (TCP/IP or local sockets) which allows
+binary requests to be sent to R.  Every connection has a separate workspace
+and working directory.  Client-side implementations are available for popular
+languages such as C/C++ and Java, allowing any application to use facilities
+of R without the need of linking to R code.  Rserve supports remote
+connection, user authentication and file transfer.  A simple R client is
+included in this package as well.")
