+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.
