-0.1. General information
+0.1. About ranger
+
+Ranger is a free console file manager that gives you greater flexibility
+and a good overview of your files without having to leave your *nix console.
+It visualizes the directory tree in two dimensions: the directory hierarchy
+on one, lists of files on the other, with a preview to the right so you know
+where you'll be going.
+
+The default keys are similar to those of Vim, Emacs and Midnight Commander,
+though Ranger is easily controllable with just the arrow keys or the mouse.
+
+The program is written in Python (2.6 or 3.1) and uses curses for the
+text-based user interface.
