+ (description
+ "XSane is a graphical interface for controlling a scanner and acquiring
+images from it. You can photocopy multi-page documents and save, fax, print,
+or e-mail your scanned images. It is highly configurable and exposes all
+device settings, letting you fine-tune the final result. It can also be used
+as a GIMP plugin to acquire images directly from a scanner.
+
+XSane talks to scanners through the @acronym{SANE, Scanner Access Now Easy}
+back-end library, which supports almost all existing scanners.")
