Author: danfe Date: Thu Sep 10 17:11:12 2015 New Revision: 396587 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/ports/396587 Log: Reformat port description text and split it into three paragraphs to improve readability. Previously the right margin was touching a terminal border for standard 80-character width (fmt -w 80) while better appeal is achieved with 72-76 values. Also, separate sentences with double space as it looks better when using fixed-width (monospace) fonts and is how we typically format text in FreeBSD.
