+Embryo is primarily a shared library that gives you an API to load and control
+interpredted programs compiled into the abstract machine bytecode that it
+understands. This abstrac (or virtual) machine is imilar to a real machine
+with a CPU, but it is emulated in software. The architecture is simple and is
+the same as the abstract machine (AMX) in the
+<a href=http://www.compuphase.com/small.htm>SMALL</a> language as it is based
+on exactly the same code. Embryo has modified the code for the AMX extensively
+and has made it smaller and more portable. It is VERY small. The total size
+of the virtual machine code AND header files is less than 2500 lines of code.
+It includes the floating point library support by default as well. This makes
+it one of the smallest interpreting engines around, and thus makes is very
+efficient to use in code.
