+Project: Ctan guidelines verifier and corrector program for uploading projects

+Basic Gawk program that uses Ctan's published guidelines for authors to help eliminate slopiness in uploaded files/project.
+It is completely open for users to program additional guidelines and Ctan's future adjustments.
+The program came about when I first attempted to upload ``Yacco2'' for Ctan consideration.
+As Yacco2 was quite large, it took me 3 attempts to clean up my project.
+Depending on how u develop your project, in my case the Yacco2 project for Ctan upload is a subset of the complete system
+and so each uplift required the guideline assessment/purging process.
+
+This is my attempt to help both the author in getting the new system in shape for Ctan uplift
+and to lower the Ctan volanteers interaction to aid in publishing on their servers.
+It is my thank you to these volanteers / Ctan.
