(My OCD kicked in today...) Remove repeated package names, capitalize first word, remove trailing periods and move overlong descriptions to longDescription. I also simplified some descriptions as well, when they were particularly long or technical, often based on Arch Linux' package descriptions. I've tried to stay away from generated expressions (and I think I succeeded). Some specifics worth mentioning: * cron, has "Vixie Cron" in its description. The "Vixie" part is not mentioned anywhere else. I kept it in a parenthesis at the end of the description. * ctags description started with "Exuberant Ctags ...", and the "exuberant" part is not mentioned elsewhere. Kept it in a parenthesis at the end of description. * nix has the description "The Nix Deployment System". Since that doesn't really say much what it is/does (especially after removing the package name!), I changed that to "Powerful package manager that makes package management reliable and reproducible" (borrowed from nixos.org). * Tons of "GNU Foo, Foo is a [the important bits]" descriptions is changed to just [the important bits]. If the package name doesn't contain GNU I don't think it's needed to say it in the description either.

The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
|
|
applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are
|
|
typed in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The
|
|
Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a
|
|
list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps
|
|
reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on
|
|
previous commands.
|
|
|
|
The history facilites are also placed into a separate library,
|
|
the History library, as part of the build process. The History
|
|
library may be used without Readline in applications which
|
|
desire its capabilities.
