# 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.

pv: data through a pipeline. It can be inserted into any normal pipeline
pv: between two processes to give a visual indication of how quickly data
pv: is passing through, how long it has taken, how near to completion it is,
pv: and an estimate of how long it will be until completion.
