+  <longdescription>
+    PyQtGraph is a pure-python graphics and GUI library built on PyQt and numpy.
+    It is intended for use in mathematics / scientific / engineering applications.
+    Despite being written entirely in python, the library is very fast
+    due to its heavy leverage of numpy for number crunching
+    and Qt's GraphicsView framework for fast display.
