+---------------
 
 Welcome to wxWindows 2, a sophisticated cross-platform C++
 framework for writing advanced GUI applications using (where
 possible) the native controls.
 
 In addition to common and advanced GUI facilities such as frames, scrolling
-windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons, device contexts,
-printing, splitter windows and so on, there are wrappers for common
-file operations and facilities for writing TCP/IP applications.
+windows, toolbars, tree controls, icons, device contexts, printing,
+splitter windows and so on, there are wrappers for common file operations,
+and facilities for writing TCP/IP applications, thread handling, and more.
 Where certain features are not available on a platform, such as MDI and
 tree controls on Unix, they are emulated.
 
 A detailed 700-page reference manual is supplied in HTML, PDF and
-Windows Help form.
+Windows Help form: see the docs hierarchy.
 
 For a quick start, point your Web browser at docs/html/index.htm for a list of
 important documents and samples.
