+**About OPPL-Galaxy**
+
+  OPPL-Galaxy can be used to execute an OPPL script against an (OWL) ontology, generating a new ontology. OPPL (Ontology Pre Processor Language) is a high level scripting language, based in the Manchester OWL Syntax, to automate the manipulation of an ontology (Adding or removing axioms). An OPPL script (See bellow or test.oppl) defines a query to be performed against the ontology, and some actions that affect the entities that will be retrieved. Those entities can be named or defined by a variable. OPPL is a powerful method for defining and executing modelling patterns that are repeated in a given ontology, saving time and effort.  
+
+**Formats**
+
+  OPPL-Galaxy uses the OWL API, and therefore can work with any ontology format that such API is able to load. That includes: OBO flat file, OWL (RDF/XML, OWL/XML, Functional, Manchester), turtle, and KRSS.
+
+**Usage**
+
+  An ontology and an OPPL file are needed (test.owl and test.oppl can be used as samples). Load both with Get Data >> Upload File from your computer. 
+
+  Then execute the OPPL file against the OWL file with Ontology Pre Processor Language >> Execute an OPPL file against an OWL file.
+
+  This is the OPPL script provided in the bundle, test.oppl. Variables start with ?: 
+
+  ?whole:CLASS,
+  ?part:CLASS
+  SELECT
+  ?part SubClassOf part_of some ?whole WHERE ?part != Nothing
+  BEGIN
+  ADD ?part SubClassOf part_of only ?whole
+  END;
