+       "OpenSCAD is a software for creating solid 3D CAD objects.  It is free
+software and available for Linux/UNIX, MS Windows and macOS.
+Unlike most free software for creating 3D models (such as the famous
+application Blender), OpenSCAD focuses on the CAD aspects rather than the
+artistic aspects of 3D modeling.  Thus this might be the application you are
+looking for when you are planning to create 3D models of machine parts but
+probably not the tool for creating computer-animated movies.
+OpenSCAD is not an interactive modeler.  Instead it is more like a 3D-compiler
+that reads a script file that describes the object and renders the 3D model
+from this script file. This gives you, the designer, complete control over the
+modeling process and enables you to easily change any step in the modeling
+process or make designs that are defined by configurable parameters.
+OpenSCAD provides two main modeling techniques: First there is constructive
+solid geometry (aka CSG) and second there is extrusion of 2D outlines.  As the
+data exchange format for these 2D outlines Autocad DXF files are used.  In
+addition to 2D paths for extrusion it is also possible to read design
+parameters from DXF files.  Besides DXF files OpenSCAD can read and create 3D
+models in the STL and OFF file formats.")
