+Shelly provides convenient systems programming in Haskell, similar in
+spirit to POSIX shells. Shelly:
+
+ * is aimed at convenience and getting things done rather than being a
+ demonstration of elegance.
+ * has detailed and useful error messages.
+ * maintains its own environment, making it thread-safe.
+ * is modern, using Text and system-filepath/system-fileio.
+
+Shelly is originally forked from the Shellish package. See the shelly-extra
+package for additional functionality.
