-vera (acronym database)
+vera (acronym dictionary)
V.E.R.A. is a free list of acronyms all of which are used in the field
of computing. It is released under the GNU Free Documentation License.
-The database is installed in GNU Info format (use "info vera" to
-access) and as the wtf(6) database, replacing the tiny/outdated one
-from bsd-games.
+The dictionary is installed in 3 formats:
+
+- GNU Info format. Use "info vera" to access.
+- The wtf(6) database. Use "wtf <acronym>" to access. This replaces
+ the tiny/outdated acronym list from bsd-games.
+- HTML. Point your browser at file:///usr/doc/vera-1.24/vera.html
+ to access.
If you remove this package, reinstall bsd-games to revert to the
original wtf database.
