+This package contains one executable that is able to read and write
+DTAUS files that are commonly used in Germany.  DTAUS is an acronym
+for DatenTrägerAUStausch.  It is used by credit institutes in order to
+transfer commands for money exchanges between bank accounts.
 
 DTAUS files use a special but simple and freely documented format.
 I've attached a written down version in dtaus.txt in this
 distribution.

-long integer variables.  Therefore I've written a small (and
-incomplete) library that deals with big integer numbers.  At the
+long integer variables.  Therefore this package includes a small (and
+incomplete) library that deals with large integer numbers.  At the
 moment it only contains routines that are needed by dtaus but you're
 invited to improve it and send back appropriate patches to me.  The
 library is called bigint and is included in this package.
