+# 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 ':'.

+R: R (Statistical Programming Language)
+R:
+R: R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.
+R: It is a GNU project which is similar to the S language and environment
+R: which was developed at Bell Laboratories (formerly AT&T, but now
+R: Lucent Technologies) by John Chambers and colleagues. R can be considered
+R: as a different implementation of S. There are some important differences,
+R: but much code written for S runs unaltered under R.
