# 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 ':'. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| alsa-oss: alsa-oss (library/wrapper to use OSS programs with ALSA) alsa-oss: alsa-oss: The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) provides audio and MIDI alsa-oss: functionality to the Linux operating system.
