+# 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 ':'.

+xnetload: Xnetload displays a count and a graph of the traffic over a specified
+xnetload: network connection.
+xnetload:
+xnetload: It either displays bytes/second or packets/second, based on the
+xnetload: capabilities of the kernel. On 2.1.x and later kernels (including the
+xnetload: 2.2.x and 2.4.x series) it displays bytes/s. It requires the /proc file
+xnetload: system, or rather /proc/net/dev which is only found in Linux.
