+# 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 ':'.

+Sphinx: Sphinx (Documentation generator)
+Sphinx:
+Sphinx: Sphinx is a tool that translates a set of reStructuredText source
+Sphinx: files into various output formats, automatically producing
+Sphinx: cross-references, indices etc. The focus is on hand-written
+Sphinx: documentation, rather than auto-generated API docs. Though there is
+Sphinx: support for that kind of docs as well (which is intended to be
+Sphinx: freely mixed with hand-written content). If you need pure API docs
+Sphinx: have a look at Epydoc, which also understands reST.
