+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; A library for rewriting URLs. Usecases include redirecting to an
+;; alternative client, removing tracking queries etc.
+
+;; Includes a collection of building block functions for url
+;; rewriting.
+
+;; Another usage would be:
+
+;; 1. Declare rewriting rules in `url-rw-rules' (see
+;; `url-rw-example-rules' for example)
+
+;; 2. Then declare some ad-hoc rewriting functions and add them to
+;; `url-rw-extra-rewriters'. An example is
+;; `url-rw-example-zoom-to-dial'.
+
+;; 3. Eval `(url-rw-refresh)' to populate the rewrite function list
+;; `url-rw-rewriters'.
+
+;; 4. The function `url-rw' can now be used on any url you wish to
+;; rewrite.
