+     "@command{pw} is Pipe Watch, a utility that continuously reads lines of
+text from a pipe or pipe-like source, passes them through a FIFO buffer, and
+maintains a display based on the occasional sampling of the contents of the
+FIFO buffer, with useful features such as triggering and filtering.
+
+With @command{pw} you can:
+
+@itemize
+@item Interactively apply and remove filters on-the-fly, without interrupting
+the source.
+
+@item Make recurring patterns in the stream appear to ``freeze'' on the
+screen, using triggers.
+
+@item Prevent the overwhelming amount of output from a program from flooding
+the terminal, while consuming all of that output so that the program isn't
+blocked.  @command{pw} can pause its display updates entirely.
+
+@item Juggle multiple shell background jobs that produce output, yet execute
+indefinitely without blocking.  When @command{pw} runs as part of a shell
+background job, it continues to consume input, process filters and take
+snapshots, without displaying anything.  When put into the foreground again,
+display resumes.
