+*****************************************************************************
+** ChibiOS/RT port for ARM-Cortex-M4 STM32F429.                            **
+*****************************************************************************
+
+** TARGET **
+
+The demo runs on an ST STM32F429I-Discovery board.
+
+** The Demo **
+
+This demo shows how to use a triple buffer handler, with one writer thread and
+one reader thread.
+The writer thread puts a character into the current back buffer, thus swapping
+the back buffer with the orphan buffer for a new write. The writer then sleeps
+for a specified delay in milliseconds.
+The reader thread gets waits (if there is a timeout) until the orphan buffer
+contains available data, becoming the new front buffer. The character is read
+from the new front buffer and printed. The reader then sleeps for a specified
+delay in milliseconds.
+A simple command shell is activated on virtual serial port SD1 or SDU1.
+Via command line it is possible to start, stop, set the delay, and set the
+thread priority of the reader and writer threads.
+The reader can also be assigned a wait timeout in milliseconds, with special
+cases of "*" for infinite timeout, and "-" (or 0 ms) for none.
+
+** Build Procedure **
+
+The demo has been tested by using the free GNU Tools ARM Embedded toolchain
+and ChibiStudio. Just modify the TRGT line in the makefile in order to use
+different GCC toolchains.
