+<title>Introduction</title>
+
+<para>&kruler; is a very simple application, with only one aim in life.  To
+measure distances on your screen.</para>
+
+<para>To start &kruler;, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Graphics</guimenu> 
+<guisubmenu>More Applications</guisubmenu>
+<guimenuitem>KDE Screen Ruler</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from your
+<guimenu>K</guimenu> menu.</para>
+
+<para>Clicking with the &LMB; on the &kruler; will turn the cursor to a cross
+with four arrows and enables you to drag &kruler; around the screen.</para>
+
+<para>When you move the mouse over &kruler;, your cursor will turn into an
+elongated arrow, with a circle at one end.  As you move the cursor, &kruler; will
+display how far from the point marked <guilabel>0</guilabel> the circle on the
+end of the cursor currently is.  &kruler; will also display the
+&HTML; color code of the color currently under the circle.
+This is very useful for picking out colors from an image.  If you move the
+mouse far enough that the arrow cursor is no longer touching &kruler;, the
+cursor will revert to normal, allowing you to carry on working with your other
+applications.</para>
+
+<para>You can change the orientation using the context menu, described in the
+next chapter.</para>
