+OBM -- Object Manager library. This library implements a window system
+toolkit as an interpreted window-object language, allowing application GUIs
+to be defined and executed at runtime without compiling any code, and with
+minimal dependence upon the underlying window system toolkit library.
+The object manager is used in X11 client applications such as the IRAF widget
+server, which is basically just the object manager packaged as a server that
+remote client applications can connect to to download and execute a GUI.
+
+See obm.c for an overview of the library.
