+LaTeX page.  There are several reasons why this might be useful, but the main
+one (or at least my motivating one) is to help produce a large-format
+conference poster.
+
+This package provides a single environment, plus a starred variant, which
+contains the text (or graphics, or table, or whatever) which is to be placed
+on the page, and which specifies where it is to be placed.  The environment is
+accompanied by various configuration commands.")
