+	send-pr - sends bug reports to a central support site
+
+`send-pr' uses electronic mail to submit support questions and
+software bugs to a central site.  No piece of software is perfect, and
+software organizations understand this `send-pr' is designed to allow
+users who have problems to submit reports of these problems to sites
+responsible for supporting the software in question, in a defined form
+which can be read by an electronically managed database.
+
+`send-pr' is part of a suite of programs known collectively as GNATS,
+an acronym for Problem Report Management System.  GNATS consists of
+several programs which, used in concert, formulate and partially
+administer a database of Problem Reports, or PRs, at a central support
+site.  A PR goes through several states in its lifetime; GNATS tracks
+the PR and all information associated with it through each state and
+finally acts as an archive for PRs which have been resolved.
+
+The same engine can be used to submit bugs to any number of support
+sites by setting up aliases for each of them; `send-pr' error-checks
+each PR as it is sent to be sure that the category specified matches a
+category supported by the site in question.
+
+`send-pr' invokes an editor on a problem report template (after trying
+to fill in some fields with reasonable default values).  When you exit
+the editor, `send-pr' sends the completed form to the support site.
+At the support site, the PR is assigned a unique number and is stored
+in the GNATS database according to its category and customer-id.  GNATS
+automatically replies with an acknowledgement, citing the category and
+the PR number.
+
+See the Texinfo file `send-pr.texi' or the Info file `send-pr.info'
+for detailed installation and usage information.
