-The pyshp library reads and writes ESRI Shapefiles in pure Python. You
-can read and write shp, shx, and dbf files with all types of
-geometry. Everything in the public ESRI shapefile specification is
-implemented. This library is compatible with Python versions 2.4
-to 3.x.
+The Python Shapefile Library (PyShp) provides read and write support for
+the Esri Shapefile format. The Shapefile format is a popular Geographic
+Information System vector data format created by Esri. For more
+information about this format please read the well-written "ESRI
+Shapefile Technical Description - July 1998" located at
+http://www.esri.com/library/whitepapers/p dfs/shapefile.pdf . The Esri
+document describes the shp and shx file formats. However a third file
+format called dbf is also required. This format is documented on the web
+as the "XBase File Format Description" and is a simple file-based
+database format created in the 1960's.
+
+Both the Esri and XBase file-formats are very simple in design and
+memory efficient which is part of the reason the shapefile format
+remains popular despite the numerous ways to store and exchange GIS data
+available today.
+
+Pyshp is compatible with Python 2.7-3.x, however this script only build
+the python3 version.
