+        <p>A task designed to help with the single-sourcing of program
documentation.
+        Snip extracts snippets of text from files, placing them into
properties in the Ant project.
+        These properties can then be used by any other Ant task, and
are particularly useful when
+        referenced by &lt;filter&gt;s within the &lt;copy&gt; task.</p>
+
+        <p>Snip was originally written to keep snippets of sample code
in API documentation synchronized
