+# 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.

+SoapySDR: SoapySDR (vendor and platform neutral SDR support library)
+SoapySDR:
+SoapySDR: SoapySDR is an open-source generalized C/C++ API and runtime library
+SoapySDR: for interfacing with SDR devices. With SoapySDR, you can instantiate,
+SoapySDR: configure, and stream with an SDR device in a variety of
+SoapySDR: environments. Both osmosdr and uhd devices are available within
+SoapySDR: SoapySDR. In addition, vendors can directly support their hardware
+SoapySDR: using SoapySDR device modules. There are wrappers for both gr-osmosdr,
+SoapySDR: uhd, and gr-uhd to bring an ecosystem of existing applications to
+SoapySDR: SoapySDR devices. And SoapySDR has support for powerful platforms like
+SoapySDR: GNU Radio and Pothos.
