+SUMMARY="A parallel implementation of gzip for multi-processor machines"
+DESCRIPTION="
+pigz, which stands for Parallel Implementation of GZip, is a fully
+functional replacement for gzip that exploits multiple processors and
+multiple cores to the hilt when compressing data.
+
+pigz was written by Mark Adler, and uses the zlib and pthread
+libraries.
+
+This version of pigz is written to be portable across Unix-style
+operating systems that provide the zlib and pthread libraries.
