+All manipulations with tables are done with the help of various actions. E.g. renaming a column is an action. Filtering, joining, aggregations -- all are actions. As of version 4.0 EasyMorph has more than 110 various actions that can be one of 5 types:
   * Create -- actions that create or generate a table
   * Import -- actions that import data into EasyMorph
   * Transform -- actions that transform previously loaded data
-  * Export -- actions that export data into files and databases
+  * Export -- actions that export data into files, databases, applications and external systems
-  * Workflow -- actions that help organize project workflow and perform various automation
+  * Workflow -- actions that organize project workflow, perform various operations with files and external systems
 Actions are executed consequently, step-by-step. One action is one step. Every action is applied to the result (output) of previous action. Therefore sequence of actions is important. The same actions in different order would usually produce a different result (although not always).
