+
+* What does it do?
+
+  [[http://dispass.babab.nl][DisPass]] is a passphrase generator. ~dispass.el~ is an [[http://gnu.org/software/emacs][Emacs]] wrapper
+  for DisPass. It tries to improve upon the user interface(s) provided
+  by DisPass by being an Emacs module, automatically copying generated
+  passphrases to your clipboard, providing label completion and
+  enabling easy management of labels.
+
+  DisPass is written by a [[http://babab.nl][friend]] of mine and I really liked the idea
+  of it. But the interface he had for it was not to my liking: it was
+  not Emacs.
+
+  It offers:
+
+  - Copying passwords directly to the clipboard, no need for manual
+    selection and copying.
+
+  - Specifying the length of the passphrase by using a numeric prefix
+    argument.
+
+  - Input completion for labels.
+
+  - Some label management (adding, removing).
+
+* Alternatives
+
+  DisPass provides its own command-line-based interface and a Tk-based
+  GUI and I also have a [[http://conkeror.org][Conkeror]] interface project for it. These all
+  suffer from not being Emacs modules and are thus unusable.
+
+* Requirements
+
+  Obviously it requires both [[http://dispass.babab.nl][DisPass]] and [[http://gnu.org/software/emacs][Emacs]]. Beyond that there
+  shouldn't be any requirements.
+
+* Download
+
+  You can browse the [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el][git source]], download a snapshot [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/archive/master.tar.gz][tar.gz]] or [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/archive/master.zip][zip]]
+  archive or install a snapshot using [[http://melpa.milkbox.net/][MELPA]]. *Note:* The snapshots
+  require a recent snapshot from the DisPass git sources, they won't
+  work with the latest DisPass release.
+
+  You can download the latest release, v{{{version}}}, as a [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/archive/1.1.2.tar.gz][tar.gz]] or
+  [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/archive/1.1.2.zip][zip]] archive or install it using [[http://marmalade-repo.org][Marmalade]]. *Note:* v{{{version}}}
+  needs DisPass v0.2.0, it won't work with recent snapshots from the
+  git sources.
+
+* License
+
+  dispass.el is released under the ISC license. The license can be
+  found in the header of the [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/blob/master/dispass.el][source]] file (or follow the link).
+
+  Since DisPass uses the ISC license, I thought it would be polite to
+  use the same license.
+
+* Documentation
+
+  For further instructions on how to use dispass.el, see the [[https://github.com/dispass/dispass.el/blob/master/README.org][README]]
