+define Package/moreutils/description
+	This is a growing collection of the Unix tools that nobody thought
+	to write long ago, when Unix was young.
+	.
+	So far, it includes the following utilities:
+	- chronic: runs a command quietly unless it fails
+	- combine: combine the lines in two files using boolean operations
+	- errno: look up errno names and descriptions
+	- ifdata: get network interface info without parsing ifconfig output
+	- ifne: run a program if the standard input is not empty
+	- isutf8: check if a file or standard input is utf-8
+	- lckdo: execute a program with a lock held
+	- mispipe: pipe two commands, returning the exit status of the first
+	- parallel: run multiple jobs at once
+	- pee: tee standard input to pipes
+	- sponge: soak up standard input and write to a file
+	- ts: timestamp standard input
+	- vidir: edit a directory in your text editor
+	- vipe: insert a text editor into a pipe
+	- zrun: automatically uncompress arguments to command
