+synopsis:            A full featured empty project
+description:         An Acme box brings you the finest in empty Haskell
+                     projects. It comes completely empty, and is
+                     guaranteed to build under even the harshest of
+                     conditions. Made of rugged recycled type safe
+                     code, an Acme box comes ready to compile.
