+# 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.

+greenlet: greenlet (micro-threads for Python)
+greenlet:
+greenlet: The greenlet package is a spin-off of Stackless, a version of
+greenlet: CPython that supports micro-threads called "tasklets". Tasklets run
+greenlet: pseudo-concurrently (typically in a single or a few OS-level threads)
+greenlet: and are synchronized with data exchanges on "channels".
+greenlet:
+greenlet: Greenlets are lightweight coroutines for in-process concurrent
+greenlet: programming. They are provided as a C extension module for the
+greenlet: regular unmodified interpreter.
