+The basic Sphinx documentation for testing
+==========================================
+
+Sphinx is a tool that makes it easy to create intelligent and beautiful
+documentation for Python projects (or other documents consisting of multiple
+reStructuredText sources), written by Georg Brandl.  It was originally created
+for the new Python documentation, and has excellent facilities for Python
+project documentation, but C/C++ is supported as well, and more languages are
+planned.
+
+Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its strengths
+come from the power and straightforwardness of reStructuredText and its parsing
+and translating suite, the Docutils.
+
+features
+--------
+
+Among its features are the following:
+
+* Output formats: HTML (including derivative formats such as HTML Help, Epub
+  and Qt Help), plain text, manual pages and LaTeX or direct PDF output
+  using rst2pdf
+* Extensive cross-references: semantic markup and automatic links
+  for functions, classes, glossary terms and similar pieces of information
+* Hierarchical structure: easy definition of a document tree, with automatic
+  links to siblings, parents and children
+* Automatic indices: general index as well as a module index
+* Code handling: automatic highlighting using the Pygments highlighter
+* Flexible HTML output using the Jinja 2 templating engine
+* Various extensions are available, e.g. for automatic testing of snippets
+  and inclusion of appropriately formatted docstrings
+* Setuptools integration
