+      Rubber is a program whose purpose is to handle all tasks related
+      to the compilation of LaTeX documents.  This includes compiling
+      the document itself, of course, enough times so that all
+      references are defined, and running BibTeX to manage
+      bibliographic references.  Automatic execution of dvips to
+      produce PostScript documents is also included, as well as usage
+      of pdfLaTeX to produce PDF documents.
