+    longDescription = ''
+      loccount is a re-implementation of David A. Wheeler's sloccount tool
+      in Go.  It is faster and handles more different languages. Because
+      it's one source file in Go, it is easier to maintain and extend than the
+      multi-file, multi-language implementation of the original.
+
+      The algorithms are largely unchanged and can be expected to produce
+      identical numbers for languages supported by both tools.  Python is
+      an exception; loccount corrects buggy counting of single-quote multiline
+      literals in sloccount 2.26.
