+# Class Net::LDAP::Filter is used to constrain LDAP searches. An object of
+# this class is passed to Net::LDAP#search in the parameter :filter.
+#
+# Net::LDAP::Filter supports the complete set of search filters available in
+# LDAP, including conjunction, disjunction and negation (AND, OR, and NOT).
+# This class supplants the (infamous) RFC 2254 standard notation for
+# specifying LDAP search filters.
+#--
+# NOTE: This wording needs to change as we will be supporting LDAPv3 search
+# filter strings (RFC 4515).
+#++
+#
+# Here's how to code the familiar "objectclass is present" filter:
+#  f = Net::LDAP::Filter.present("objectclass")
+#
+# The object returned by this code can be passed directly to the
+# <tt>:filter</tt> parameter of Net::LDAP#search.
+#
+# See the individual class and instance methods below for more examples.
