-A chat program for use with America Online's Instant Messenger. The
-name naim is derived from n's AIM client, but it could also have been
-derived from ncurses AIM client because of naim's use of the ncurses
-text-mode screen library.
+naim is a console client for AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), AOL I Seek You 
+(ICQ), Internet Relay Chat (IRC), and The lily CMC.
+
+It includes unique features like zero-configuration peer to peer encryption, 
+automatic message queueing, and incoming message modification (to correct 
+common spelling mistakes and expand common abbreviations; see /help filter).
+
+It also includes powerful dynamic module support, allowing developers to 
+modify all major aspects of naim's behavior.
+
+When combined with GNU Screen, naim is great to use as a chat client as 
+well as an answering machine. Individual users can detach, log out, pack 
+up and go home, then log back in from anywhere on the Internet to resume 
+their naim session.
