+This directory tree's worth of stuff are utility bits that are used in
+more than one of our GRASP projects.  (For the project-specific bits,
+try <project>/utils/<blah>.)
+
+msub/		a utility from Paul DuBois, that lets you substitute
+		for make variables (e.g., $(CC) ) in any old document.
+		Given that, with the "make world" configuration
+		system, Makefiles have loads of useful config info in
+		them, this is the program used to sneak that info into
+		other files.
+
+ugen/		A utility from the LML-compiler distrib to support
+		poor man's abstract data types for C.  Used in the
+		parser ($(TOP)/parsers/hsp).
+
+scripts/	little utility scripts
+
+ lndir		from X imake stuff (via DuBois); make a shadow tree
+		of symbolic links
+ mkdirhier	"mkdir a/b/c/d" will do "mkdir a; mkdir a/b; ..."
+		(assuming none of those dirs exist)
+
+ runstdtest	runs a pgm with some flags & some stdin; checks for an
+		expected exit code, expected stdout, and expected
+		stderr.  (Expect this to change :-)
+
+ newer		"newer a b" (obsolete?) exit code 0 if file "a" newer
+		than "b", or something like that...
+
+ tidycpp, hscpp	cpp (C pre-processor) wrappers, the latter for
+		Haskell, the former obsolete?
+
+ mkdependC	script version of C makedepend (from X11R4 via DuBois)
+ mkdependHS	"make depend" (perl) script for Haskell code.
+
+ mkdependLML	simon's makedepend1 script (needs work to function here)
+		(NOT BUILT)
+
+ fastmake	a "make" wrapper for compiling Haskell programs;
+		essentially, strips out the "make depend"ed
+		dependencies to avoid so much re-checking.
+
+ update_iface	a REALLY HORRIBLE hack, for updating the new Haskell
+		compiler's interface files; covers for deficiencies in
+		"nhc" (prototype compiler) i/face handling.
+
+ ltx		a "latex" wrapper.  Re-runs latex/bibtex/makeindex
+		enough times to "do the right thing."
