+Common Lisp is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. GNU
+CLISP is a Common Lisp implementation by Bruno Haible of Karlsruhe
+University and Michael Stoll of Munich University, both in Germany.
 
-Common Lisp CLISP provides
-  * an interpreter
-  * a compiler which makes execution of programs 5 times faster
-  * a debugger
-  * all data types with unlimited size (the size need never be declared,
-    the size of lists and arrays may be changed dynamically)
-  * integers of arbitrary length, unlimited floating point number precision
-  * An X11 interface is available through CLX, Garnet, CLUE/CLIO.
-  * CLOS, a foreign language interface, sockets, i18n, and more.
+It mostly supports the Lisp described in the ANSI Common Lisp standard.
+It runs on microcomputers (Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98/ME) as well
+as on Unix workstations (Linux, SVR4, Sun4, DEC Alpha OSF, HP-UX, BeOS,
+NeXTstep, SGI, AIX and others) and needs only 2 MB of RAM.
 
+The user interface comes in German, English, French, Spanish, Dutch and
+Russian. GNU CLISP includes an interpreter, a compiler, a debugger,
+CLOS, a foreign language interface, sockets, i18n, fast bignums and
+more. An X11 interface is available through CLX, Garnet, CLUE/CLIO. GNU
 CLISP runs Maxima, ACL2 and many other Common Lisp packages.
