+This collection of scripts was originally written for ksh-88 by
+John DuBois <spcecdt@armory.com>.  The conversion to bash v2
+syntax was done by Chet Ramey.
+
+These scripts are as-is; there is no copyright associated with
+any of them.  They exist simply as examples of bash scripting.
+
+Here's a description of what's in this directory:
+
+arc2tarz   Convert an "arc" archive to a compressed tar archive.
+corename   Tell what produced a core file.
+fman       Fast man replacement.
+frcp       Copy files using ftp but with rcp-type command line syntax.

+nmv        A nicer front end for mv (has -i, etc.).
