Thank you.

This project is no longer maintained, and the repository is read-only.
Last release is more than 3 years old. Do you think the whole thing is
worth packaging nonetheless ?

You can insert version directly here. No need for a binding.

Please order inputs alphabetically.

Synopsis must not start with article "A". Also, "modern" may be vague.

> +      (description

Description should consist of complete sentences.
