+      This is the home page of "SLOCCount", a set of tools for
+      counting physical Source Lines of Code (SLOC) in a large number
+      of languages of a potentially large set of programs.  This suite
+      of tools was used in my papers More than a Gigabuck: Estimating
+      GNU/Linux's Size and Estimating Linux's Size to measure the SLOC
+      of entire GNU/Linux distributions, and my essay Linux Kernel
+      2.6: It's Worth More!  Others have measured Debian GNU/Linux and
+      the Perl CPAN library using this tool suite.
