+DomTerm is a combined terminal emulator and REPL console using web
+technlogies - i.e. JavaScript and DOM: Users can type commands which
+gets sent to an application, which evaluates the command, and
+displays the results, typically in some kind of type-script format.
+
+DomTerm supports several non-trivial deployment methods (because) it
+is a web program, after all. This SlackBuild builds the two simplest
+ones:
+
+1. A web service called simply "domterm", which can be opened in a
+ browser.
+2. A Qt5 binary called "qtdomterm", which can be launched as a normal
+ GUI terminal.
+
+Many experimental options, such as using libclipboard, webview, and
+wry are not supported (yet).
