+Extline - plugin for extending lines (e.g., underlined titles)
+**************************************************************
+
+When writing titles in a plain text document, a common convention is to use
+repeated punctuation characters to draw lines under (and sometimes over) the
+title text. This plugin helps maintain those title lines more easily, and
+it provides support for standalone horizontal lines as well.
+
+Titles are marked up in a manner compatible with reStructuredText[1], and the
+various heading levels are chosen to coincide with the Sphinx[2] project's
+conventions as follows::
+
+ ##############
+ Part (level 9)
+ ##############
+
+ *****************
+ Chapter (level 0)
+ *****************
+
+ Section (level 1)
+ =================
+
+ Subsection (level 2)
+ --------------------
+
+ Subsubsection (level 3)
+ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+ Paragraph (level 4)
+ """""""""""""""""""
+
+ Level-5 heading
+ '''''''''''''''
+
+Extline provides methods for adding these lines, adjusting them to fit as the
+section names changes, and for converting one level to another.
