-Although supplied with the perl package, the perl scripts in this eg
-directory and its subdirectories are placed in the public domain, and
-you may do anything with them that you wish.
-
-This stuff is supplied on an as-is basis--little attempt has been made to make
-any of it portable. It's mostly here to give you an idea of what perl code
-looks like, and what tricks and idioms are used.
-
-System administrators responsible for many computers will enjoy the items
-down in the g directory very much. The scan directory contains the beginnings
-of a system to check on and report various kinds of anomalies.
-
-If you machine doesn't support #!, the first thing you'll want to do is
-replace the #! with a couple of lines that look like this:
-
- eval 'exec /usr/bin/perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}'
- if $running_under_some_shell;
-
-being sure to include any flags that were on the #! line. A supplied script
-called "nih" will translate perl scripts in place for you:
-
- nih g/g??
