-This package provides an @samp{orderless} @emph{completion style} that divides 
the
-pattern into space-separated components, and matches candidates that
-match all of the components in any order. Each component can match in
-any one of several ways: literally, as a regexp, as an initialism, in
-the flex style, or as multiple word prefixes. By default, regexp and
-initialism matches are enabled.
-
-A completion style is a back-end for completion and is used from a
-front-end that provides a completion UI@. Any completion style can be
-used with the default Emacs completion UI (sometimes called minibuffer
-tab completion) or with the built-in Icomplete package (which is
-similar to the more well-known Ido Mode). To use a completion style in
-this fashion simply add it as an entry in the variables
-@samp{completion-styles} and @samp{completion-category-overrides} (see their
-documentation).
