#  About this file
#  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#  This file is in human readable form, but is intended to be compiled with
#  the program 'descc' into the 'describe' database.  Just type 'descc
#  <filename>', where <filename> is the name you saved this file to, and
#  descc will compile the file into the file /usr/lib/describe.db, or
#  alternatively into a file named 'describe' in the path given by the
#  environment variable DESCDB.  Make sure the path that DESCDB points to
#  or /usr/lib exist first! Information may be later culled from the
#  file with the command 'describe <utility>'.
#
#  While this file may be updated manually, it is recommended that new
#  entries and updates be merged through the use of 'descu'.  This will
#  ensure that the file remains sorted.  Failure to do so may result in
#  describe(1) not finding some entries.
#
#  This file is sorted lexicographically, ignoring case, based on the
#  "Name" field.

#
#  This page has:
#	- links to the current version of describe, descu, and descc
#	- links to the current version of this database, in both source
#	  form (this file), and the precompiled database
#	- indexed online describe entries
#	- instructions on how to submit new and updated entries.
#
#  Updates and corrections may also be sent by email to:
#
#	describe-submit@trenco.gno.org
#
#  This address points to a filter.  If you use it, you *must* ensure the
#  following:
#
#	- the subject line contains the word "describe";
#	- you include only describe entries, in the format used in this
#	  file;
#	- if you have a signature attached to your email, it must be 
#	  preceeded by the standard "--" on a line by itself;
#	- only ASCII mail is accepted.  Don't try sending encoded mail,
#         by MIME or other means;
#	- all field names should be at the immediate start of a line;
#	- the "Name" field must be a single word;
#	- the "Where" field must be specified;
#	- the description must be non-empty;
#
#  If your submission was successful, you will receive an email response
#  (assuming your email address is real).
#
#  To obtain the version number of a program: 
#  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#  A) use the shell program `getvers',
#  B) any usage or -v/V flag supplied by the utility author
#
#
#  NOTES:
#	1.  The "Author" field may indicate who is maintaing the current
#           port, and may not actually mean the original author of the
#           program.
#	2.  There may be more than one port of a given program.  Often the
#	    older or obsolete ports are not listed.
