+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;    This package provides functions to query CCSO PH/QI nameservers
+;;    through an interactive form or replace inline query strings in
+;;    buffers with appropriately formatted query results (especially
+;;    used to expand email addresses in message buffers). It also
+;;    interfaces with the BBDB package to let you register entries of
+;;    the CCSO PH/QI directory into your own database.  The CCSO PH/QI
+;;    white pages system was developped at UIUC and is in use in more
+;;    than 300 sites in the world. The distribution can be found at
+;;    ftp://uiarchive.cso.uiuc.edu/pub/packages/ph Traditionally the
+;;    server is called QI while the client is called PH.
+
+;;; Installation:
+;;    This package uses the custom and widget libraries. If they are not already 
+;;    installed on your system get them from http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~abraham/custom/
+;;    Then uncomment and add the following to your .emacs file:
+;;      (require 'ph)
+;;      (eval-after-load "message"
+;;                       '(define-key message-mode-map [(control ?c) (tab)] 'ph-expand-inline))
+;;      (eval-after-load "mail"
+;;                       '(define-key mail-mode-map [(control ?c) (tab)] 'ph-expand-inline))
+;;    See the info file for details
+
+;;    This package runs under XEmacs 19.15 or 20 and under Emacs 19.34 and above
+
+;;; Usage:
+;;    - Provided you did the installation as proposed in the above section, 
+;;      inline expansion will be available when you compose an email
+;;      message. Type the name of somebody recorded in your PH/QI server and hit
+;;      C-c TAB, this will overwrite the name with the corresponding email 
+;;      address
+;;    - M-x ph-customize to customize inline expansion and other features to
+;;      your needs.
+;;    - Look for the Ph submenu in the Tools menu for more.
+;;    See the info file for details.
