Well, if it makes you happy, why not.

Sorry, but I do not quite understand how anybody would type "Written in C++" when looking
for a speed test tool.

I think you also dont understand what the "Description" field is usefull for. Especially in this case, with dozens of tools.

Putting "Written in C++" is primarly not meant to help the minority of people looking for stuff written in C++.

It is meant to help, anyone, quickly look at a very very long list of similar results, and quickly choose and or discard what they want or do not want.

If you search for these words separately, of course there will be dozens of matches, as they are quite generic.

But if you start typing them together, "speedt" already suggests this package as first hit.

If you search the AUR for "speed" "test" there are dozens and dozens of tools with similar name written in many different languages.

It gets confusing for the end user to quickly know which one is which.

Could you edit that "Description" to something like,

  Description:   Unofficial speedtest.net cli using raw TCP for better accuracy. Written in C++

Doesnt cost you anything.

Thanks in advance.

The version number is updated automatically on reinstall as it pulls from git.

Anyways, I've updated it to 1.14.r71.

the version number is broken, its version number is 1.14.r71.0f63cfb-1 instead of the intended version of 1.14.r68.1877803-1.
