 description     Groovy -- a Java-based scripting language
 
-long_description Groovy is a new agile dynamic language for the JVM combining \
-                lots of great features from languages like Python, Ruby and \
-                Smalltalk and making them available to Java developers \
-                using a Java-like syntax. \
-                \
-                Groovy is designed to help you get things done on the Java \
-                platform in a quicker, more concise and fun way - bringing \
-                the power of Python and Ruby inside the Java platform. \
-                \
-                Groovy can be used as an alternative compiler to javac to \
-                generate standard Java bytecode to be used by any Java project \
-                or it can be used dynamically as an alternative language such \
-                as for scripting Java objects, templating or writing unit test cases.
+long_description Groovy... \
+                * is an agile and dynamic language for the Java Virtual Machine \
+                * builds upon the strengths of Java but has additional power \
+                  features inspired by languages like Python, Ruby and Smalltalk \
+                * makes modern programming features available to Java developers \
+                  with almost-zero learning curve \
+                * provides the ability to statically type check and statically \
+                  compile your code for robustness and performance \
+                * supports Domain-Specific Languages and other compact syntax so \
+                  your code becomes easy to read and maintain \
+                * makes writing shell and build scripts easy with its powerful \
+                  processing primitives, OO abilities and an Ant DSL \
+                * increases developer productivity by reducing scaffolding code \
+                  when developing web, GUI, database or console applications \
+                * simplifies testing by supporting unit testing and mocking \
+                  out-of-the-box \
+                * seamlessly integrates with all existing Java classes and \
+                  libraries \
+                * compiles straight to Java bytecode so you can use it anywhere \
+                  you can use Java
