That's a *very* long "short" description. Common practice is to keep it under about 60 characters. How about this: Graphical audio ripper, encoder, converter, player and tag editor Although I'll be the first to agree that is a thoroughly ugly sentence construction. A more general form: Graphical music file creation and manipulation tool Or perhaps: Music file creation and manipulation tool for GNOME (That is, assuming that the 'g' in gnormalize is a GNOME 'g' and not some other 'g') Although this short form doesn't list all of the specific capabilities of the tool, it should be enough to give people enough info to decide whether they want to look at the long description. You could then use the short description you originally provided as the first paragraph of the long description, which is a good introduction to the tool. - Matt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
