+dmtx-utils - software for reading and writing Data Matrix barcodes
+
+libdmtx is open source software for reading and writing Data Matrix
+barcodes on Linux, Unix, OS X, Windows, and certain mobile devices.
+The included utility programs, dmtxread and dmtxwrite, serve as the
+official interface to libdmtx from the command line, and also provide
+a good reference for programmers who wish to write their own programs
+that interact with libdmtx.
+
+Data Matrix barcodes are two-dimensional symbols that hold a dense
+pattern of data with built-in error correction. The Data Matrix
+symbology (sometimes casually referred to as "DataMatrix") was invented
+and released into the public domain by RVSI Acuity CiMatrix.
