+# 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.

+wdiff: wdiff (display word differences between text files)
+wdiff:
+wdiff: The GNU wdiff program is a front end to diff for comparing files on
+wdiff: a word per word basis. A word is anything between whitespace. This is
+wdiff: useful for comparing two texts in which a few words have been changed
+wdiff: and for which paragraphs have been refilled. It works by creating
+wdiff: two temporary files, one word per line, and then executes diff on
+wdiff: these files. It collects the diff output and uses it to produce a
+wdiff: nicer display of word differences between the original files.
