o Add a =head1 DESCRIPTION. This fixes installation using FreeBSD's BSDPAN

    extension. Oh. And it also does this neat little thing called telling people
    what the code does. Might be handy.
o   Add rudimentary support with C style shells. Defaults to sh if your
    $ENV{SHELL} isn't defined for some reason (you evil person). Anything that
    doesn't match /csh/ is assumed to be Bourne. If someone makes another
    Futurama-themed shell that isn't Bourne-style, this'll probably spit out
    commands which make that shell break.
o   And add some docs in support of the aforementioned support for csh.

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module provides a quick, convenient way of bootstrapping a user-local Perl
+module library located within the user's home directory. It also constructs and
+prints out for the user the list of environment variables using the syntax
+appropriate for the user's current shell (as specified by the C<SHELL>
+environment variable), suitable for directly adding to one's shell configuration
+file.
 
 =head1 LIMITATIONS
 
-No support for non-bourne shells.
+Rather basic shell detection. Right now anything with csh in its name is
+assumed to be a C shell or something compatible, and everything else is assumed
+to be Bourne.
 
 Bootstrap is a hack and will use CPAN.pm for ExtUtils::MakeMaker even if you
 have CPANPLUS installed.
