+pysndfile is a python package providing PySndfile, a Cython wrapper class
+around libsndfile. PySndfile provides methods for reading and writing a
+large variety of soundfile formats on a variety of plattforms. PySndfile
+provides a rather complete access to the different sound file manipulation
+options that are available in libsndfile.
+
+Due to the use of libsndfile nearly all sound file formats, (besides mp3
+and derived formats) can be read and written with PySndfile.
+
+The interface has been designed such that a rather large subset of the
+functionality of libsndfile can be used, notably the reading and writing of
+strings into soundfile formats that support these, and a number of sf_commands
+that allow to control the way libsndfile reads and writes the samples. One of
+the most important ones is the use of the clipping command.
