+*****
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+KWSys is the Kitware System Library. It provides platform-independent
+APIs to many common system features that are implemented differently on
+every platform. This library is intended to be shared among many
+projects at the source level, so it has a configurable namespace.
+Each project should configure KWSys to use a namespace unique to itself.
+See comments in `CMakeLists.txt`_ for details.
