+# them to AGPL.

+# You expected this to be using diff & patch? Well, the source
+# files have all sorts of different commenting and indentation
+# styles, not speaking of typos and failed uses of search and
+# replace, that an attempt in using the patch(1) tool would fail
+# miserably. This script instead is based on my rgrep from 1998.
+# Keeping it here as it may be useful to other projects under-
+# going the same pains. It is forbidden to use this script to
+# convert AGPL code back to less strict licensing. Haha, just
+# kidding.
