-Sphinx is a tool that translates a set of reStructuredText source
-files into various output formats, automatically producing
-cross-references, indices etc. The focus is on hand-written
-documentation, rather than auto-generated API docs. Though there is
-support for that kind of docs as well (which is intended to be
-freely mixed with hand-written content). If you need pure API docs
-have a look at Epydoc, which also understands reST.
+Sphinx is a tool that translates a set of reStructuredText source files into
+various output formats, including HTML, ePub, LaTeX and plain text. Sphinx was
+originally created for the Python documentation, but it has excellent
+facilities for the documentation of software projects in a range of languages.
