+<!-- ================================================= -->
+
+<p>Clang aims to produce beautiful diagnostics by default, particularly for new
+users that first come to Clang.  However, different people have different
+preferences, and sometimes Clang is driven by another program, not a person. For
+these cases, Clang provides a wide range of options to control the exact output
+format of the diagnostics that it generates.</p>
