+bitstring is a pure Python module designed to help make the creation and
+analysis of binary data as simple and natural as possible.
+
+Bitstrings can be constructed from integers (big and little endian), hex,
+octal, binary, strings or files. They can be sliced, joined, reversed,
+inserted into, overwritten, etc. with simple functions or slice notation.
+They can also be read from, searched and replaced, and navigated in,
+similar to a file or stream.
