+      AfterStep is a window manager for the Unix X Window
+      System. Originally based on the look and feel of the NeXTStep
+      interface, it provides end users with a consistent, clean, and
+      elegant desktop. The goal of AfterStep development is to provide
+      for flexibility of desktop configuration, improving aestetics,
+      and efficient use of system resources.
