+This library provides an ECMAScript compatible interpreter. The ECMA standard
+is based on well known scripting languages such as Netscape's JavaScript and
+Microsoft's JScript.
+
+I'm currently pursuing to be compliant with Edition 3 of ECMA-262. Postscript
+and pdf versions of the standard are available at:
+
+http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ecma-st/Ecma-262.pdf
+for PDF and
+http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-262.htm
+for the standard page.
+
+About 95% of the required features should be covered by now. Note that this
+number covers the core language elements only. Features like the famous
+roll-over buttons on the www are NOT part of the standard. Those extensions
+are added via a module loaded dynamically by the KHTML Widget.
+
+I'll provide some examples of how to extend this library for various needs at
+a later point in time. Feel free to contact me via mail if you have any
+questions on how to provide scripting capabilities for your application.
+
+A debugger is being worked on.
+
+Bug reports, patches or feedback of any kind is very welcome.
