+Transforms of any length are supported, but if you request a length
+not supported by any of the library implementations provided here, or
+by any of the libraries compiled in, a simple slow DFT will be used
+instead. Of the most commonly used libraries, Accelerate and IPP
+support power-of-two lengths only, KissFFT supports any multiple of
+two (because we only use the real-input interface), and FFTW supports
+any length. You can compile in more than one library, so as to use
+e.g. VDSP for powers of two and KissFFT for other even lengths.
 
 Requires the bqvec library.
