-Purpose of the thorn:
+Thorn FlexIO provides a library for writing multidimensional data from
+Cactus using the IEEEIO data format. The advantage of using this library
+is that it is distributed with Cactus and needs no additional libraries
+to be installed on a machine.
+Writing in the FlexIO-IEEEIO format is currently implemented in thorn
+CactusPUGHIO/IOFlexIO.
+
+For more information the reader is directed to the web pages for
+FlexIO at http://infinite-entropy.lbl.gov/FlexIO/
