+The is the Perl application bundle for ClusterSSH (a.k.a cssh), formally
+a GNU tools based project.
+
+ClusterSSH is a tool for making the same change on multiple servers at
+the same time. The 'cssh' command opens an administration console and
+an xterm to all specified hosts. Any text typed into the administration
+console is replicated to all windows. All windows may also be typed into
+directly.
+
+This tool is intended for (but not limited to) cluster administration
+where the same configuration or commands must be run on each node
+within the cluster. Performing these commands all at once via this
+tool ensures all nodes are kept in sync.
