 Cls lets you define classes with a more terse syntax. It's useful for presenters and other classes that have many small methods. For example:
 
-```
+```ruby
 class UserPresenter
+    extend Cls
     takes :user
     let(:full_name) { [@user.first_name, @user.last_name].join(" ") }
 end
@@ -15,7 +16,7 @@ end
 
 Contrast that with the standard Ruby version:
 
-```
+```ruby
 class UserPresenter
     def initialize(user)
         @user = user

 Pretty big difference, huh?
 
+## HISTORY
+
+Cls started as the Shorty class in [Raptor](https://github.com/garybernhardt/raptor). There's also a Destroy All Software [screencast](https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts/catalog/shorter-class-syntax) that discusses the implementation.
+
+## WHY NOT USE STRUCT?
+
+Struct can give you approximately what `takes` does, but it requires inheriting from Struct and it will default omitted constructor arguments to nil. I don't like it as a solution, inheritance and silent nils both being evil.
+
 ## CAVEATS
 
 Ruby 1.8 will allow you to pass the wrong number of arguments to a block, which can be confusing. It throws a warning, so you should at least be notified that you're doing it. This problem doesn't exist in Ruby 1.9.
