+  The stringstrings package
+  =========================
+
+This package provides a large and sundry array of routines for the
+manipulation of strings.  The routines are developed not only for
+cosmetic application, such as the changing of letter cases, selective
+removal of character classes, and string substitution, but also for
+programming application, such as character look-ahead applications,
+argument parsing, if-tests for various string conditions, etc.  A key
+tenet employed during the development of this package (unlike, for
+comparison, the \uppercase and \lowercase routines) was to have
+resultant strings be ``expanded'' (i.e., the product of an \edef), so
+that the \stringstrings routines could be strung together sequentially and
+nested (after a fashion) to achieve very complex manipulations.
+
+Run `stringstrings.ins' through LaTeX to produce stringstrings.sty
+     from stringstrings.dtx.
+Run `stringstrings.dtx' through LaTeX to produce the documentation.
