+# Matt McCutchen's Linux utilities
+
+This is a collection of utilities I use or previously used on my Linux system.  Some of them may work on other unix-like systems.  For documentation, see https://mattmccutchen.net/utils/ and (where present) comments in the files.  Your feedback and contributions are welcome: please email me at matt@mattmccutchen.net .
+
+These utilities are in one repository for my convenience and yours even though they fall into a number of unrelated groups and vary widely in maturity.  Caveat emptor!
