  29.   <h3>Introduction</h3>
  30.   <p>
  31.   So, what's it all about? Well in a nutshell P4Ruby allows you to write 
  32.   beautiful Ruby code that interacts with a Perforce server. The main features 
  33.   are:
  34.   </p>
  35.  
  36.   <ul>
  37.     <li>Get Perforce data and forms in native Ruby classes
  38.     <li>Edit Perforce forms by modifying objects
  39.     <li>Exception based error handling
  40.     <li>Distinguish between errors and warnings easily
  41.     <li>Run many commands on a single connection 
  42.   </ul>
  43.  
  44.   <p>
  45.   Writing Ruby code is a joy for all programmers, and P4Ruby makes that experience
  46.   available to Perforce users. Enjoy it!
  47.   </p>
  48.  
  49.   <strong>
  50.       <p>
  51.       Note: In March 2008, P4Ruby was adopted as a supported Perforce 
  52.       product. The version here, in the Perforce Public depot is deprecated,
  53.       and will not be maintained further.
