    1.13 +This package contains:
    1.14 +
    1.15 +  * `bzip2` - Compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text
    1.16 +    compression algorithm with Huffman coding; the compression rate is better
    1.17 +    than that achieved by more conventional compressors using "Lempel-Ziv"
    1.18 +    algorithms, like gzip
    1.19 +  * `bunzip2` - Decompresses bzipped files
    1.20 +  * `bzcat` - Decompresses to standard output
