+# 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 ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+msbasic2ascii: msbasic2ascii (detokenizers for MS BASIC variants)
+msbasic2ascii:
+msbasic2ascii: This package contains detokenizers for 12 different flavors of
+msbasic2ascii: Microsoft BASIC. They convert the binary SAVE format to human readable
+msbasic2ascii: BASIC source. Supported BASICs include TSR-80 (Model I Level II, Model
+msbasic2ascii: 4), MSX, GW-BASIC, MS-BASIC for CP/M, Tandy CoCo, Dragon 32/64.
+msbasic2ascii:
+msbasic2ascii: Also, experimental unsupported detokenizers are included for
+msbasic2ascii: OSI 8K BASIC, Exidy Sorceror, Nascom BASIC, Crytal BASIC, and
+msbasic2ascii: Compucolor. Some of these are known to be incomplete, and some just
+msbasic2ascii: need testing against real-world code.
