+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; Org-Babel support for evaluating Stan [1] source code.
+;;
+;; Evaluating a Stan block can produce two different results.
+;;
+;; 1) Dump the source code contents to a file.
+;;
+;;    This file can then be used as a variable in other blocks, which
+;;    allows interfaces like RStan to use the model.
+;;
+;; 2) Compile the contents to a model file.
+;;
+;;    This provides access to the CmdStan interface.  To use this, set
+;;    `org-babel-stan-cmdstan-directory' and provide a :file argument
+;;    that does not end in ".stan".
+;;
+;; For more information and usage examples, visit
+;; http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-stan.html
+;;
+;; [1] http://mc-stan.org/
