+# 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 ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+7plus: 7PLUS (encoder vaguely similar to Unix's UUENCODE)
+7plus:
+7plus: It uses a very effective radix216 encoding and incorporates diverse
+7plus: mechanisms to ensure decoded data is not corrupted. It also includes
+7plus: an interactive repair mechanism which allows the repair of damaged
+7plus: files using correction files, thus eliminating the need to retransmit
+7plus: entire files. In case of a corruption, only the faulty sections are
+7plus: resent. 7PLUS is only meant to be used within the Packet Radio network
+7plus: for the tranport of binary data through Packet Radio mail. It cannot
+7plus: be used for Internet eMail since it needs a (almost) transparent path
+7plus: from end to end."
