This collection of scripts was originally written for older versions
of bash by Noah Friedman (friedman@gnu.ai.mit.edu). 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.
