Package: sweep
Version: 0.9.3-2
Severity: normal
When you start sweep, it gives a box that says this:
"Sweep: welcome to Sweep."
"Hello, my name is Scrubby. Welcome to Sweep.
Would you like to create a new file or load an existing file?"
Now, this tells me that the program is called sweep.
But it does *not* tell me what the heck sweep does.
Please add some text to the initial screen that will
give a new user some small clue what the program is good
for.
(Yes, I know. It lets you create new files or load existing
files. But, 99% of other linux applications can do that
too...)
