+Description: |-
+    GNU Emacs is an extensible, customizable, free/libre text
+    editor — and more.
+
+    At its core GNU Emacs is an interpreter for Emacs Lisp, a
+    dialect of the Lisp programming language with extensions to
+    support text editing.
+
+    The features of GNU Emacs include:
+    * Content-aware editing modes, including syntax coloring, for many file types;
+    * Complete built-in documentation, including a tutorial for new users;
+    * Full Unicode support for nearly all human scripts;
+    * Highly customizable, using Emacs Lisp code or a graphical interface;
+    * A wide range of functionality beyond text editing, including a project planner, mail and news reader, debugger interface, calendar, IRC client, and more;
+    * A packaging system for downloading and installing extensions.
+
+    Android notes:
+    * System keyboard can be invoked by tapping on a non read-only buffer;
+    * Permissions are not granted by default, they must be explicitly enabled in system settings menu;
+    * Android version of emacs is built without GNUTLS support;

+MaintainerNotes: |-
+    Build instructions can be found at:
+    https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/INSTALL.android?h=feature/android
+
+    VersionCode is substituted based on versionCode in the
+    build section.
+    VersionCode is based on versionName with 2 digits for each of
+    major version, minor version, patch.
+    Three numbers are appended to the end of versionCode, two to account for builds until
+    the release of GNU Emacs 30 and one to differentiate builds for each architecture:
+
+    x86 - 0
+    armeabi-v7a - 1
+    x86_64 - 2
+    arm64-v8a - 3
+
+    Scangnored files:
+    * admin/charsets/glibc/*.gz - contains gzipped charsets which are needed
+      for the build;
+    * build-aux/dir_top - page for emacs' info system, which contains an ASCII
+      control character and falsely reported as binary.
+
+    Scandeleted files:
+    * test - contains multiple gzip-compressed files related to tests,
+      not needed for the build;
+    * etc/e - contains prebuilt terminfo data, which is deleted and built
+      again during the build.
