+
+;;; Commentary:
+;;
+;; This package defines functions for inserting and manipulating
+;; clickable buttons in Emacs buffers, such as might be used for help
+;; hyperlinks, etc.
+;;
+;; In some ways it duplicates functionality also offered by the
+;; `widget' package, but the button package has the advantage that it
+;; is (1) much faster, (2) much smaller, and (3) much, much, simpler
+;; (the code, that is, not the interface).
+;;
+;; Buttons can either use overlays, in which case the button is
+;; represented by the overlay itself, or text-properties, in which case
+;; the button is represented by a marker or buffer-position pointing
+;; somewhere in the button.  In the latter case, no markers into the
+;; buffer are retained, which is important for speed if there are are
+;; extremely large numbers of buttons.
+;;
+;; Using `define-button-type' to define default properties for buttons
+;; is not necessary, but it is is encouraged, since doing so makes the
+;; resulting code clearer and more efficient.
