     \<^descr>[Isabelle/Scala] is the system programming language of Isabelle. It
     extends the pure logical environment of Isabelle/ML towards the outer
     world of graphical user interfaces, text editors, IDE frameworks, web

-    transfer algebraic datatypes and formatted text easily between ML and
-    Scala, using asynchronous protocol commands.
+    services, SSH servers, SQL databases etc. Both Scala and ML provide
+    library modules to support formatted text with formal markup, and to
