+This is version 4.2 of nab (nucleic acid builder), a computer language that
+is intended for use in creating, describing and modifying macromolecules,
+especially nucleic acids. Programs written in nab are translated into C,
+which in turn is compiled into machine code.
+
+Further general information can be obtained from our web page:

+
+Although we have been using this code for some time now, users should be
+aware that bugs may still exist. Please see the file COPYING for the usual
+disclaimer of liability. Further enhancements are planned, and will be
+announced on the web page.
+
+Please send comments and suggestions to Tom Macke (macke@scripps.edu) and/or
+to Dave Case (case@scripps.edu). If you find the program useful, please
+send us a note outlining your applications.
