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