+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.
+
+Here's a description of what's in this directory:
+
+aref.bash Pseudo-arrays and substring indexing examples.
+bash.sub.bash Library functions used by require.bash.
+bash_version.bash A function to slice up $BASH_VERSION.
+meta.bash Enable and disable eight-bit readline input.
+mktmp.bash Make a temporary file with a unique name.
+number.bash A fun hack to translate numerals into English.
+PERMISSION Permissions to use the scripts in this directory.
+prompt.bash A way to set PS1 to some predefined strings.
+README README
+remap_keys.bash A front end to 'bind' to redo readline bindings.
+require.bash Lisp-like require/provide library functions for bash.
+send_mail.bash Replacement SMTP client written in bash.
+shcat.bash Bash replacement for 'cat(1)'.
+source.bash Replacement for source that uses current directory.
+string.bash The string(3) functions at the shell level.
+stty.bash Front-end to stty(1) that changes readline bindings too.
+y_or_n_p.bash Prompt for a yes/no/quit answer.
