5 kx # HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
5 kx # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
5 kx # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
5 kx # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
5 kx # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
5 kx # customary to leave one space after the ':'.
