+long_desc="
+ FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is
+ similar to MP3, but lossless. The FLAC project consists of:
+  * the stream format
+  * libFLAC, which implements reference encoders and decoders
+  * flac, a command-line wrapper around libFLAC to encode and decode .flac
+    files
+  * input plugins for various music players (Winamp, XMMS, and more in the
+    works)
+
+\"Free\" means that the specification of the stream format is in the public
+domain (the FLAC project reserves the right to set the FLAC specification
+and certify compliance), and that neither the FLAC format nor any of the
+implemented encoding/decoding methods are covered by any patent. It also
+means that the source for libFLAC is available under the LGPL and the
+sources for flac and the plugins are available under the GPL."
