+# 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 ':'.

+uni2ascii: uni2ascii (convert UTF-8 into 7-bit ASCII and vice versa)
+uni2ascii:
+uni2ascii: uni2ascii provides conversion in both directions between UTF-8 Unicode
+uni2ascii: and more than thirty 7-bit ASCII equivalents, including HTML numeric
+uni2ascii: character references, various escapes and hexadecimal. Such ASCII
+uni2ascii: equivalents are useful when including Unicode text in program source,
+uni2ascii: when debugging, and when entering text into web programs that can
+uni2ascii: handle the Unicode character set but are not 8-bit safe.
