<title>OSSP var</title>
-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Variable Expansion</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+OSSP var is a very sophisticated and fast variable construct expansion
+library. It supports the usual scripting language style variable syntax
+(<tt>${name}</tt>, <tt>$(name)</tt>, <tt>%{name}</tt>, etc.) and
+provides both simple scalar and array expansion and post-operations
+on the expanded value. The supported post-operations are length
+determination, case conversion, defaults, postive and negative
+alternatives, sub-strings, regular expression based substitutions,
+character translations, padding and even nested iterations over array
+variables. The actual value lookup is performed through as callback
+function, so OSSP var can expand arbitrary values.
