+%description
+IP Tables State (iptstate) was originally written to implement
+the "state top" feature of IP Filter (see "The Idea" below) in
+IP Tables. "State top" displays the states held by your stateful
+firewall in a top-like manner.
+
+Since IP Tables doesn't have a built in way to easily display 
+this information even once, an option was added to just have it 
+display the state table once.
+ 
+Features include:
+    - Top-like realtime state table information
+    - Sorting by any field
+    - Reversible sorting
+    - Single display of state table
+    - Customizable refresh rate
+    - Open Source (specifically I'm using the zlib license)
