+XFile is a compact file manager for UNIX and alike systems running
+X11. It presents the file system as-is, without imaginary locations,
+trashcans etc.
+
+By default, Xft fonts will be used by copying a bundled resource
+file to enable that into app-defaults. If you wish to use Helvetica
+invoked by XLFD strings, pass DEFAULT_XFT=no variable to the script
+or override the settings in your X11 resource files.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
