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

+readline: readline (line input library with editing features)
+readline:
+readline: The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
+readline: applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are typed
+readline: in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The Readline
+readline: library includes additional functions to maintain a list of previously
+readline: entered command lines, to recall and perhaps edit those lines, and
+readline: perform csh-like history expansion on previous commands.
