-KSEG is a Linux program for exploring Euclidean geometry. You create a
-construction, such as a triangle with a circumcenter, and then, as you
-drag verteces of the triangle, you can see the circumcenter moving in
-real time. KSEG was inspired by the Geometer's Sketchpad, but I have
-plans to go beyond the functionality that it provides.
+KSEG is a Free (GPL) interactive geometry program for exploring Euclidean
+geometry. It runs on Unix-based platforms (according to users, it also compiles
+and runs on Mac OS X and should run on anything that Qt supports). You create a
+construction, such as a triangle with a circumcenter, and then, as you drag
+verteces of the triangle, you can see the circumcenter moving in real time. Of
+course, you can do a lot more than that.
+
+KSEG can be used in the classroom, for personal exploration of geometry, or for
+making high-quality figures for LaTeX. It is very fast, stable, and the UI has
+been designed for efficiency and consistency. I can usually make a construction
+in KSEG in less than half the time it takes me to do it with similar programs.
+Despite the name, it is Qt based and does not require KDE to run.

+KSEG was inspired by the Geometer's Sketchpad, but it goes beyond the
+functionality that Sketchpad provides.
