# 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 ':'.

vwm: 
vwm: Viper Window Manager (VWM) is a lightweight, extensible window manager
vwm: for the console. Originally, VWM was designed to be the reference 
vwm: implementation of libviper. In fact, the two projects were initially 
vwm: one before public release.
vwm: From conception, VWM was designed to be both lightweight and ssh 
vwm: friendly. Character based line-art compresses very well as do the 
vwm: escape sequences which handle cursor manipulation. This makes VWM 
vwm: quite suitable for low-bandwidth, remote connectivity over ssh.
