+This is a "Hello, world!" example that shows how to implement a very basic
+command line interface using CLI.
+
+The example consists of the following files:
+
+hello.cli
+  Options class definition in the CLI language.
+
+hello.hxx
+hello.ixx
+hello.cxx
+  Options class implementation in C++. These files are generated by the CLI 
+  compiler from hello.cli using the following command line:
+
+  cli hello.cli
+
+driver.cxx
+  Driver for the example. It first instantiates the option class which parses
+  the command line. The driver then examines the options and prints the
+  greeting string for each name passed as argument.
+
+To run the example you can try the following command lines:
+
+$ ./driver --help
+$ ./driver John Jane
+$ ./driver --greeting Hi --exclamations 3 John Jane
