+GiNaC is a C++ library. Its design is revolutionary in a sense that contrary
+to other CAS it does not try to provide extensive algebraic capabilities and
+a simple programming language but instead accepts a given language (C++) and
+extends it by a set of algebraic capabilities.
+The name GiNaC is an iterated and recursive abbreviation for GiNaC is
+Not a CAS, where CAS stands for Computer Algebra System.
+
+This requires cln.
