+# 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 ':'.

+mt-st: mt-st (controls magnetic tape drive operation)
+mt-st:
+mt-st: This mt originates from BSD NET-2. Some Linux SCSI tape-specific
+mt-st: ioctls have been added to the original source and the man page has
+mt-st: been updated. Although this mt program is tailored for SCSI tape, it
+mt-st: can also be used with the QIC-02 driver and hopefully with other Linux
+mt-st: tape drivers using the same ioctls (some of the commands may not work
+mt-st: with all drivers).
