+This work is a LaTeX package consisting of the following files:
+ * README.md
+ * topiclongtable.sty
+ * topiclongtable-doc.tex
+ * topiclongtable-doc.pdf
+
+---
+
+This LaTeX package extends `longtable` implementing cells that:
+
+* merge with the one above if it has the same content,
+* do not merge with the one above unless the ones on the left are merged,
+* are well behaved with respect to `longtable` chunking on page breaks,
+* and automatically draw the correct separation lines.
+
+The typical use case is a table spanning multiple pages that contains a list of hierarchically organized topics (hence the package name).
