+# 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.

+snappy: snappy (A fast compressor/decompressor)
+snappy:
+snappy: Snappy is a compression/decompression library. It does not aim for
+snappy: maximum compression, or compatibility with any other compression
+snappy: library; instead, it aims for very high speeds and reasonable
+snappy: compression. For instance, compared to the fastest mode of zlib,
+snappy: Snappy is an order of magnitude faster for most inputs, but the
+snappy: resulting compressed files are anywhere from 20% to 100% bigger.
