-This is a simple package to automatically preview in a side window the
-file at point in Dired buffers.  Preview windows are closed when they
-are no longer relevant, while preview buffers are killed if they have
-not been used for other purposes beside previewing.
-
-Enable the `dired-preview-mode` in the current Dired buffer and then
-perform the regular up/down motions.  Those will trigger the preview.
-
-The previewed file is displayed in a side window if its size is below
-the number specified in the user option `dired-preview-max-size`.
-Previews are shown subject to a small delay, per ther user option
-`dired-preview-delay`.
-
-Files matching the `dired-preview-ignored-extensions-regexp` are not
-previewed.  The default value of that user option includes multimedia,
-PDFs, and EPUBs.
-
-[ In the future, we may find ways to quickly preview any file type
-  without affecting the performance of Emacs.  Though `dired-preview`
-  is designed to have no external dependencies, so such an ambition
-  may not be realisable (e.g. produce a thumbnail out of a video). ]
-
-To set up `dired-preview-mode` in every Dired buffer, set it up thus:
-
-```elisp
-(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook #'dired-preview-mode)
-```
-
-I took inspiration for `dired-preview` from the now unmaintained
-`peep-dired` package by Adam Sokolnicki: <https://github.com/asok/peep-dired>.
-My original plan was to volunteer to maintain `peep-dired` but I
-decided to write it my own way: it was easier for me, plus I can
-implement only what I consider necessary without upsetting existing
-users.
