 FindMFC
 -------
 
-Find Microsoft Foundation Class Library (MFC) on Windows
+Finds the native Microsoft Foundation Class Library (MFC) for developing MFC
+applications on Windows.
 
-Find the native MFC - i.e.  decide if an application can link to the
-MFC libraries.
+.. note::
 
-::
+  MFC is an optional component in Visual Studio and must be installed
+  separately for this module to succeed.
 
-  MFC_FOUND - Was MFC support found
+Once the MFC libraries and headers are found, no additional manual linking is
+needed, as they are part of the development environment.
 
-You don't need to include anything or link anything to use it.
+Result Variables
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This module defines the following variables:
