+ (description "i3status is a small program for generating a status bar for
+i3bar, dzen2, xmobar or similar programs. It is designed to be very efficient
+by issuing a very small number of system calls, as one generally wants to
+update such a status line every second. This ensures that even under high
+load, your status bar is updated correctly. Also, it saves a bit of energy by
+not hogging your CPU as much as spawning the corresponding amount of shell
+commands would.")
