+Resynthesizer is a Gimp plug-in for texture synthesis. Given a sample
+of a texture, it can create more of that texture. This has a surprising
+number of uses:
+
+ * Creating more of a texture
+ (including creation of tileable textures)
+
+ * Removing objects from images
+ (great for touching up photos)
+
+ * Creating themed images
+
+This plug-in installs itself in the Filters/Map menu as "Resynthesize".
+It generates a texture based on a sample image of the texture. The
+result can be made to fit the boundary pixels of a region, or to have
+a specified arrangement of features.
+
+Also included in this package are some scripts that use Resynthesizer:
+
+ Filters/Enhance/Smart enlarge
+ Filters/Enhance/Smart sharpen
+ Filters/Enhance/Smart remove selection
