<summary>
-Set construction variables for Ghostscript.
+<para>
+This Tool sets the required construction variables for working with
+the Ghostscript command. It also registers an appropriate Action
+with the PDF Builder (&b-link-PDF;), such that the conversion from
+PS/EPS to PDF happens automatically for the TeX/LaTeX toolchain.
+Finally, it adds an explicit Ghostscript Builder (&b-link-Gs;) to the
+environment.
