+The libgrass package consists of the majority of the libgis, and
+libdatetime library functions from the GRASS GIS program. They are
+built as a standalone shared library suitable for use by non-GRASS
+applications wishing to read and write GRASS databases. Some
+additional functions have been added to simplify library
+initialization and data access by non-GRASS applications.
+
+While libgrass is currently only suitable for accessing GRASS raster
+cells, and associated support files, it is hoped that future
+revisions will include support for vector files, and other data
+elements stored within the GRASS database.
