#                                  Introduction

My personal collection of bash utility scripts, meant to support a wide range of

applications; but not very useful by themselves.

You can find more details and similar tools on

[Yet Another Linux'n Electronics Blog](https://yalneb.blogspot.com/).

*DISCLAIMER*

Note that some script snippets might be from third parties.

I collected them over many years from forums, wikis, and chats.

The original authors, if known, are referenced within the individual scripts.

If you recognize a snippet and the file has no reference

(specially in the older ones), kindly let me know.
