  This is a package of supplementary Unix-style utilities. They're meant to be
  highly portable and to cover common problems that can't be easily solved with
  shell.

    -strcmp: Exits with 0 if the provided pair of strings differs. Otherwise, 1.
    -vis: Replaces non-printing and non-ASCII characters with octal values.
    -unfold: Exactly what it sounds like. unfold will attempt to merge lines
             with fewer than the provided number of characters with the next
	     line, so long as it doesn't cause a word-split.
    -overwrite: Reads stdin and writes it to the provided file.
