+<summary>Graphical Signal Processing Flow Graph Design Tool</summary>
+<description>
+ <p>
+ The GNU Radio Companion (GRC) is a tool that allows users of all levels to
+ design and modify high-rate signal processing applications. It is the GUI
+ frontend for GNU Radio application designers.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ GNU Radio is centered around the concept of the Block, which is a
+ node in a signal processing flow graph. Since GNU Radio itself comes with a lot
+ of useful blocks already, one can start developing real-time and
+ hardware-interfacing or simulation flow graphs right away, using GRC as the tool
+ to connect and parameterize these blocks.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ GRC itself generates a program in a target language (Python or C++), which
+ contains all the signal flow setup as defined visually.
+ </p>
