+;;; struct.el --- Helpers for working with structs -*- lexical-binding: t -*-
+
+;; Author: William Carroll <wpcarro@gmail.com>
+;; Version: 0.0.1
+;; Package-Requires: ((emacs "24.3"))
+
+;;; Commentary:
+;; Provides new macros for working with structs.  Also provides adapter
+;; interfaces to existing struct macros, that should have more intuitive
+;; interfaces.
+;;
+;; Sometimes `setf' just isn't enough.
