+    longDescription = ''
+    Lambda-term is a cross-platform library for
+    manipulating the terminal. It provides an abstraction for keys,
+    mouse events, colors, as well as a set of widgets to write
+    curses-like applications.
+
+    The main objective of lambda-term is to provide a higher level
+    functional interface to terminal manipulation than, for example,
+    ncurses, by providing a native OCaml interface instead of bindings to
+    a C library.
+
+    Lambda-term integrates with zed to provide text edition facilities in
+    console applications.
