+CrashPlan is a backup software product that backs up personal files once a
+day:
+
+* Free onsite backup, allowing you to back up to other computers and
+  attached external hard drives.
+* Free offsite backup when you back up to computers belonging to people you
+  know, like friends and family.
+* Paid cloud-storage backup: the free version of CrashPlan does not back up
+  to their cloud storage.
+
+The daemon is CrashPlanEngine, which is started by rc.crashplan.
+The GUI can be launched by using the command CrashPlanDesktop.

+# 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 ':'.
