 define Package/apinger/description
-	Alarm Pinger (apinger) is a little tool which monitors various IP devices by
-	simple ICMP echo requests. There are various other tools, that can do this,
-	but most of them are shell or perl scripts, spawning many processes, thus much
-	CPU-expensive, especially when one wants continuous monitoring and fast
-	response on target failure.  Alarm Pinger is a single program written in C, so
-	it doesn't need much CPU power even when monitoring many targets with frequent
-	probes.  Alarm Pinger supports both IPv4 and IPv6. The code have been tested
-	on Linux and FreeBSD.
