+@(#)README 1.8 92/04/10
+
+This "contrib" directory is a place holder for code/scripts sent to
+me by contributors around the world. This READM file will be kept
+up-to-date from release to release. BUT, I must point out that these
+contributions are really, REALLY UNSSUPPORTED. In fact, I probably
+don't even know what they do. Nor do I guarantee to have tried them,
+or ported them to work with this CVS distribution. If you have questions,
+you might contact the author, but you should not necessarily expect
+a reply. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK -- and all that stuff.
+
+Contents of this directory:
+
+ README This file.
+ log.pl A perl script suitable for including in your
+ $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/loginfo file for logging commit
+ changes. Includes the RCS revision of the change
+ as part of the log.
+ Contributed by Kevin Samborn <samborn@sunrise.com>.
+ pcl-cvs A directory that contains GNU Emacs lisp code which
+ implements a CVS-mode for emacs.
+ Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
+ commit_prep.pl A perl script, to be combined with log_accum.pl, to
+ log_accum.pl provide for a way to combine the individual log
+ messages of a multi-directory "commit" into a
+ single log message, and mail the result somewhere.
+ Also does other checks for $Id and that you are
+ committing the correct revision of the file.
+ Read the comments carefully.
+ Contributed by David Hampton <hampton@cisco.com>.
+ mfpipe.pl Another perl script for logging. Allows you to
+ pipe the log message to a file and/or send mail
+ to some alias.
+ Contributed by John Clyne <clyne@niwot.scd.ucar.edu>.
+ rcs-to-cvs Script to import sources that may have been under
+ RCS control already.
+ Contributed by Per Cederqvist <ceder@lysator.liu.se>.
+ cvscheck Identifies files added, changed, or removed in a
+ cvscheck.man checked out CVS tree; also notices unknown files.
+ Contributed by Lowell Skoog <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>
+ cvshelp.man An introductory manual page written by Lowell Skoog
+ <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>. It is most likely
+ out-of-date relative to CVS 1.3, but still may be
+ useful.
+ dirfns A shar file which contains some code that might
+ help your system support opendir/readdir/closedir,
+ if it does not already.
+ Copied from the C-News distribution.
+ rcslock.pl A perl script that can be added to your commitinfo
+ file that tries to determine if your RCS file is
+ currently locked by someone else, as might be the
+ case for a binary file.
+ Contributed by John Rouillard <rouilj@cs.umb.edu>.
+ cvs_acls.pl A perl script that implements Access Control Lists
+ by using the "commitinfo" hook provided with the
+ "cvs commit" command.
+ Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>.
+ descend A shell script that can be used to recursively
+ descend.man descend through a directory. In CVS 1.2, this was
+ very useful, since many of the commands were not
+ recursive. In CVS 1.3 (and later), however, most of
+ the commands are recursive. However, this may still
+ come in handy.
+ Contributed by Lowell Skoog <fluke!lowell@uunet.uu.net>
+ cln_hist.pl A perl script to compress your
+ $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/history file, as it can grow quite
+ large after extended use.
+ Contributed by David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com>
