# 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 ':'.

oss: The Open Sound System (OSS) is a standard interface for making and

oss: allow one to write a sound-based application program that works with
oss: any sound controller hardware, even though the hardware interface
oss: varies greatly from one type to another. OSS is free software,
