 gotta love it... :)

 i just wasn't expecting anyone to use this rather obscure program
that i wrote when i was the maintainer of a package that pulled in
several thousand files from dozens of different sources (all under
different libre licenses) and in addition had something like fifty
different contributors.  it was an imperative to have it.  it was
therefore written in a rush and i didn't think to add the copyright
notice and license.
