+<longdescription>
+Surfraw provides a fast unix command line interface to a variety of popular WWW
+search engines and other artifacts of power. It reclaims google, altavista,
+babelfish, dejanews, freshmeat, research index, slashdot and many others from
+the false-prophet, pox-infested heathen lands of html-forms, placing these
+wonders where they belong, deep in unix heartland, as god loving extensions to
+the shell.
+
+Surfraw abstracts the browser away from input. Doing so lets it get on with what
+it's good at. Browsing. Interpretation of linguistic forms is handed back to the
+shell, which is what it, and human beings are good at. Combined with
+netscape-remote or incremental text browsers, such as links
+(http://artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~mikulas/links/), w3m (http://www.w3m.org/),
+and screen(1) a Surfraw liberateur is capable of navigating speeds that leave
+GUI tainted idolaters agape with fear and wonder.
